Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden
Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden follows Red Mac Raith and Ava, a couple of ghost hunters operating in the supernatural-infested frontier of New Eden during the 1600s. When Ava is mysteriously killed and transformed into a ghost, Red becomes obsessed with uncovering the truth behind her death while grappling with the moral weight of his profession. As Red investigates, he must decide the fate of tormented spirits haunting the colonial settlement—some deserve redemption, others demand vengeance. Each choice carries consequences that reshape the world around him and determine whether he can save Ava's soul or lose her forever. The game weaves together action-adventure gameplay with narrative-driven decision-making, exploring themes of love, loss, and the blurred line between justice and revenge in a dark, atmospheric world where the supernatural and human conflicts collide.

MYCELIUM
SERIES PREMISE Seven teenagers go on a weekend camping trip deep into a protected forest to experiment with psychedelic mushrooms. As the trip intensifies, the forest begins to behave strangely—plants breathe, animals speak, shadows move with intent. The teens assume it’s just the drugs. But the forest isn’t hallucinating. Nature has its own consciousness, and it doesn’t like being observed, altered, or escaped. The mushrooms don’t cause the horror—they remove the filter that normally protects humans from seeing it. Everything they experience may not be “real”… but it can still kill them.

Echoes of Tomorrow
In a world where certain people intermittently experience “time echoes” — fleeting glimpses of events that haven’t happened yet — a secretive government agency recruits them to solve crimes before they occur… but the closer they get to preventing disasters, the more reality begins to fracture.

THE MAD GASSER OF MATTOON (1944)
