About This Game

Indika is a third-person, story-driven adventure about a young nun who leaves her monastery and travels through a surreal, darkly comic reimagining of 19th-century Russia accompanied by a horned, devilish companion. Gameplay combines exploration, environmental puzzles, light platforming and occasional 2D pixel-art mini-games; the focus is on narrative, atmosphere, and philosophical themes rather than action. The tone is mature, introspective, and often surreal, touching on religion, sin, and psychological distress.
