Hello friends. This is a Let’s Play video of “Occlude” demo version. Occlude is a ritual disguised as Solitaire; a cosmic-horror card game where the rules are obscured and reality is at stake. Play through cryptic challenges to reveal forbidden lore in this singleplayer narrative puzzle game for the terminally curious. Don’t worry; you can always start over.
A ritual cloaked in simplicity, Occlude remakes the familiar Solitaire tableau into a gateway of cosmic dread where each card flip peels back veils of hidden rules and fractured memory. Seven increasingly intricate “Rituals” stand between you and the heart of its surreal narrative — a story unraveling regrets, forbidden pacts, and the uncanny power to rewrite reality with mere coins and cards. Atmospheric audio and hand-drawn gothic visuals amplify the mounting tension as lore fragments emerge from the Archives, drawing you deeper into its mind‑bending puzzle-horror crucible.
