The Book of Plagues

The plague has descended upon the city of Ludwig. You are the plague doctor - the last barrier between order and chaos. Walk the grim streets of a dying city and master the art of medicine in an age of pestilence. Diagnose, treat, and make brutal decisions. Enforce quarantines, burn infected homes, fight panic and whispers. Every action has a price - and not everyone will survive it… To be a doctor in Ludwig means trading in hope. Dangerous, but profitable: everyone - from beggars to counts - is willing to give their last coin for another breath of life.

Buy rare recipes, mix concoctions, craft potent elixirs - and remember: the stronger the remedy, the higher the price of a mistake. Your goal isn’t simply to become the best physician. Your goal is to save those who can still be saved. The game unfolds week by week, each one a struggle on death’s threshold. Diagnose ailments, battle diseases through tense mini-games, and perform miracles over a smoking distiller. Your only companion is Bane the raven. He mocks, jeers, advises… and only you can hear him. Is he the voice of reason - or your creeping madness?
