About Vaska

An atmospheric puzzle-platformer inspired by Slavic folklore.

OBSERVE YOUR SURROUNDINGS

The world around you is full of shadows and sounds, but only careful observation will help you escape the forest. Listen, watch, and remember.

FIND HIDDEN PATHS

Squeeze through tight spaces others can't reach. Climb along branches and tree trunks to find paths hidden from view.

AVOID THOSE WHO DWELL IN THE FOREST

Fairytale characters you have known since childhood have become something else here. The one who used to be Kolobok no longer runs – it hunts. Hide, sneak, and hold your breath when they are near. Any sound could attract their attention. And if they spot you — they won’t stop.

KEY FEATURES

• Unique gameplay — use Vaska’s agility and instincts to explore

• Solve puzzles — from simple to challenging

• Use your wits — use the environment to move forward

• Be cautious – the forest is full of danger, and sometimes it's better to hide

• React quickly — only your reflexes will save Vaska

• Uncover secrets – learn all the mysteries the forest and its inhabitants hold
