Overview

Kadath is an adventure game that draws deep inspiration from the unsettling works of H.P. Lovecraft. Players are thrust into a mystery surrounding a Nazi train, a special armored vehicle known as a Sonderzug, which disappeared during World War II along with a passenger named Elisa Schneider. Seventy-five years later, this train inexplicably reappears in the Himalayas, setting the stage for a chilling investigation.

The game's narrative delves into the historical context of the Third Reich's vast empire and its luxurious, armored trains used for travel. The core gameplay loop involves piecing together clues and unraveling the enigma of the train's temporal and geographical displacement.

While the first episode is fully playable, players should note that certain features like brightness adjustment, key remapping, volume controls, and save/load functionality are not yet implemented.
