Scorched Sun is a short experience that combines top down survival horror with turn based combat.

As a new initiate, delve into the depths of a monastery of the Scorched Sun order and discover the secrets within.

The order has sent you to investigate why they have lost contact with a monastery set in a small village. Upon arrival, you will notice that the situation is not as simple as you thought.

When exploring, you only see what your character can see. Explore various environments and gather resources to keep onwards with your investigation.

However, be careful with your surroundings because something might be lurking while you’re not watching.

In combat, your offensive actions are determined by the weapon you have equipped.

You can target specific parts of the enemy. When critically damaged, the limb will be lost.

But be careful, because some enemies change their behaviour when losing certain limbs and might become even more dangerous.
