A retro-inspired Metroidvania set in a gothic fantasy castle.

Your time is limited: if you cannot conquer the castle within 30 days, everything will be swallowed by darkness.

Overview

Paladin Enoch sets out to investigate a tragic incident on the empire’s frontier.
With the aid of Sister Rebecca and the church, he ventures into a castle transformed into another world, searching for the fate of four missing knights and their lord.

Night Castle faithfully delivers the essence of classic Metroidvania—exploration, collection, and hidden areas unlocked by new abilities—while introducing a unique twist: time management.

As dusk falls, the power of darkness grows and exploration becomes more perilous. Yet, doors open only at night, and defeating stronger enemies grants greater rewards.
But once midnight passes, beware: an unspeakable malice seizes the castle.

Within the 30-day limit, can Enoch and Rebecca complete their mission?
