Description from Steam STEAM

Assume the role of a nobleman in the late 19th century and journey through the defining moments of his life, starting from birth. Your decisions will shape his character and determine his ultimate destiny. Alongside your hero, confront the era's systemic injustices and personal challenges, navigating dramatic events within your family and relationships. As he matures, cultivate essential skills that will influence his future. Choose your path—pursue an education, forge a military career enduring the trials of the Russo-Japanese War and World War I, embark on a civil service career while sidestepping political intrigue, or join the revolutionaries and lead the charge. Choose to pursue power with bold, decisive action—or opt for a more cautious path. Forge alliances or risk creating adversaries. Will you relentlessly chase ambition, or dedicate yourself to protecting your family from strife? Embrace the role of a public speaker or a persuasive propagandist, a daring adventurer or a strategic commander. Enhance your skills, unlock unique abilities, and strive to reshape the course of history. Would you like to change the past? A gloomy St. Petersburg, February 1917. The nearly 200-year history of the Russian Empire has ended. The Romanov dynasty is no longer in power. In the aftermath, a civil war ensued, a revolutionary experiment unfolded, resulting in approximately 4 million deaths in combat and over 10 million more succumbing to hunger, deprivation, and disease. Could history have taken a different path? The seven days of February merely served as the trigger for long-accumulated societal tensions. Could the military have supported the emperor and prevented him from abdicating the throne? And what if, instead of Lenin, another person had emerged as the leading revolutionary? Five acts of an intricate narrative You'll experience every stage of life—childhood, adolescence, youth, and adulthood—up to the first week of the revolution. The Role of the Individual in History The game's story is a complex web of conditions, choices, and their consequences. As you make decisions throughout various scenes, you will affect not only yourself, but also those around you, your family, society, and the fate of the entire nation. Engaging with historical figures Rasputin, Lenin, Kornilov, and Stolypin are some of the key historical figures you'll encounter in the game. What would have happened if Lenin had not become the leading revolutionary? You will decide whether to aid them or oppose them. Will they become your enemies or allies? The road to all accomplishments lies ahead Shape your identity from birth by developing charisma, empathy, perseverance, agility, and intelligence. The combination of these traits will unlock unique skills and abilities, each capable of radically altering the course of history. Talent System Your power as a Decadent is revealed through unique mystical abilities. With each new rebirth, you not only retain memories of past lives but also acquire new talents. Begin by choosing one of four core talents: "Nostradamus" – foresee consequences, "Trickster’s Smile" – bypass limitations, "Indomitable" – enhance stamina and activity, "Prodigy" – reduce risks. With every playthrough, your arsenal of abilities will expand, unlocking new paths and opportunities to reshape history. Risk Mechanics in Decision-Making A flexible decision-making system allows you to make almost any choice, regardless of your character’s stats. Want to engage in combat despite being physically weak? Or persuade an opponent without the necessary charisma? Now you can—but be warned, every risky decision can have serious consequences. The further your stats are from the required values, the higher the chance of failure. Make your decisions according to your instincts, not just the numbers.
