The Chant

The Chant is an action adventure game, in the style of psychedelic horror. It was developed by the team at Brass Token, created, among others, by former employees of such studios as Rockstar Games, Electronic Arts and The Coalition; its release was handled by Prime Matter.

Plot

The Chant takes us on a journey to a remote island belonging to a New Age cult. The main character arrives on this patch of land in search of peace, tranquility and enlightenment. Things take a tragic turn, however, when a ritual performed by cultists ends up opening a passage to another dimension. The darkness, for that is the name of this reality, feeds on the negative energy of the people, manifesting their fears and weaknesses in the form of terrifying creatures. Fighting for survival, the protagonist must uncover the mystery of the events that took place on the island in the 1970s, as they are the key to closing the portal again.

Game mechanics

In The Chant, we observe the action from a third-person perspective (TPP). The exploration of the island, discovering its secrets, getting to know its inhabitants and solving puzzles are hindered by enemies created by the Darkness. The protagonist has to defend herself against them, using the tools of murder she creates herself based on the resources she finds along the way. When, on the other hand, everything else fails, she has no choice but to flee.

Technical aspects

The Chant features high quality graphics. Above all, the game's diverse, richly detailed and atmospheric locations are to be liked, although attention is also drawn to the realistically animated, detailed character models.
