What is Saturnalia?
In this third-person horror adventure, you explore a Sardinian village as four characters investigating a ritual tied to local traditions. Switch between them to gather clues, solve puzzles with found tools, and use matches to see. If all four die, the village layout changes, but story and puzzle progress remain.
