FPS should run smoothly, we are aware of some issues when running the game on less-gaming-oriented laptops. We'll try to fix it or add graphic quality settings !
Updated 11/08 (5:36): Fixed some bugs related to the subtitles and conversation issues in the dialogue tree from the second scene.

¡Qué preciosidad de juego! Una pena que esté con el portátil y no me va muy bien, pero he podido verlo en uno de los vídeos que os han dejado por aquí y me parece una pasada.
Los efectos de sonido animan muchísimo la historia, sobre todo en los momentos en que en pantalla no está pasando mucho. Me recuerda mucho a un teatro. También me gusta especialmente la escena de huir por el bosque con los colores cambiantes.
En fin, que enhorabuena por el juego :)
Muchas gracias Luis! Nos alegramos mucho de que te haya gustado :D
I loved this! I did run into a bug though, after the window sequence in the first tale I couldn't move using wasd until i minimised the game and tried again.
We didn't know about that bug, thanks for letting us know, no idea why that happened. Thanks for playing, I'm glad you enjoyed it 💙
Hey guys, that was a good experience. I took the chance to upload my gameplay on my channel. The PS1 visuals are very good, as well the tales here. Congrats and Keep it up man!
Thank you so much for playing! we are really happy you enjoyed it!
I am really interested on the name of the myths that was told in the demo. Also, not a bad demo.
Here's my channel for other games I have played. http://www.youtube.com/c/Levont
Thank you so much for playing! Sadly, during the doctor's scene the last subs didn't appear, we gotta check that.
The first tale is about the Legua Dereita's crime. It happened during early 1900 right near my hometown and it went on to become the urban myth that I heard as a little girl.
The second tale is about Allariz's werewolf, who inspired the Sacaúntos (like our own Boogeyman). Manuel was actually Spain's first serial killer, if I recall correctly.
The last one is about the most prominent figure of our imaginary: a Santa Compaña (Holy Company), a procession of dead wandering and warning about upcoming deaths. While the other two are more regional specific, a Santa Compaña is known everywhere in Galicia and many of our elders claim to have seen it at least once.
Of course, we took some creative licenses to improve the storytelling, but yeah, those are it :) Hope you enjoyed it and thanks again for playing!
Ah, are you from Galicia? Anyway, this game was great!
Yes, I'm from a small town near Lugo! :)
I loved the atmosphere of this game… everything comes together to make you feel ao carón da lareira 💙 also Galician is really beautiful omg
Thank you so much for playing! We are really glad you enjoyed it! 💜
Awww 💙 I agree, Galician sounds super sweet to the ear, so velvety. And Pablo, our voice actor, was amazing!
