Echoes of the Fey: The Last Sacrament
A downloadable game for Windows
**FULL GAME NOW RELEASED!**
The Echoes of the Fey series mixes a high fantasy setting with the mysteries and conspiracies of pulp detective fiction. Play as Sofya Rykov, a private investigator with a secret of her own: she is the only Human able to wield unlimited magic. Each episode is a narrative-heavy adventure game with branching story-lines and a standalone plot.
Developed in Unreal Engine 4, The Last Sacrament forms the next installment of the ongoing series. Sofya’s loyalty grows divided when she is hired for one job and blackmailed into another. Sofya’s childhood love and the Emperor’s daughter, Katerina, seeks her protection from threats near the border. Katerina’s rival Nikolai, a ruthless local politician, needs a dangerous drug stolen from the powerful Krovakyn Church and has the leverage to force Sofya to do it. All the while, Katerina and Nikolai clash over control over the city—and Sofya’s heart.
Large segments of The Last Sacrament will play as a point and click adventure game with dialogue in the traditional style of a visual novel. But unlike earlier Woodsy Studio games, The Last Sacrament also features an in-world tabletop RPG called RiftRealms. Inspired by story-focused pen and paper games, Sofya will play RiftRealms games with various supporting characters as dungeon master. Players will both build a character in RiftRealms to fight increasingly more powerful foes, and learn about the key players in Sofya’s life through how they choose to tell a RiftRealms story.
You can also pursue romances with four different characters in The Last Sacrament: Heremon, Arkady, Nikolai, or Katerina.

so is this the third chapter?
I bought this on steam but it doesn't work when I try to save my game or press continue so I was wondering if I could get an activation key to install it from this site and see if it works better? I'm really enjoying the game and would love to continue playing it.
Hey Sam! As I mentioned on Steam, it sounds like an important save file got corrupted. You can purge your saves from this folder: C:\Users\[USERNAME]\AppData\Local\EotF_Sacrament\Saved\SaveGames (replace [USERNAME] with your own username on your computer) to start again fresh. I also pushed an update here and on Steam this morning that I hope will provide an extra fail-safe from something like this happening again.
Will this be available on Mac at some point?
Unfortunately we don't expect to release on Mac; apologies!
My antivirus says that files of this game may be infected by virus, so I can't play it. Please, check it.
Hi MrMar,
Unfortunately this is very common for indie games before they have been played by a widespread audience. The antivirus software simply does not recognize the program. The files are safe, and you can still play if you tell your antivirus to ignore them (or if needed, you can temporarily disable your antivirus).
Just played the demo, so here are my first impressions;
The little mini game is interesting and definitely a leap in an unique direction. The only issues I had were that changing in actions with a mouse (going from Moving Action to Trap Action for example) were a little janky, with Moving often becoming automatic. Otherwise, very interesting and look forward to see how you up the difficulty and make it challenging later in the game.
I'm digging the living backgrounds from the two scenes there is in the demo, and while in the screenshots the depth perception is a little weird in the city-view, in scripted bits it looks lovely!
Very pleased to see character animations and interactions with my boy Heremon are staying true, and Kat looks like she's going be a very interesting addition to Sofya's upcoming story! (Plus in the last game I was very much angling for a Sofya-Heremon mutual interest, and having a bit of real romance drama will give me LIFE.)
I usually make saves when Choices come up, so I can quickly pop back and change the choice if I change my mind, but script froze when I tried to load back and test how the save system was- it returned to normal when I loaded the auto-save and picked the first choice with Heremon, so I guess saving on the Choice screen doesn't work...
Overall, I've got a positive feeling about this game, and I am reeeally looking forward to seeing how you go forward with it. While all the animation and mini-games might not be why I'll play it, and more for just how much I'm loving Sofya and her story, I'm still supporting the decision and hope you have fun experimenting with your new tech :)
Good luck! You have an eager customer with me!
Thanks so much for these notes, @queenbol! We're looking forward to sharing the final result with everyone in a few months :D
