PALE ANIMUS

Mystery in the Pale

PALE ANIMUS is a PC story game about Thomas Cassian, whose childhood dreams turn out to be physically tangible. He joins the University of Westervale to study the Pale, a dream realm, under the controversial Magister Sigmund. After Sigmund and his daughter Heather are murdered, Cassian sees Heather in his dreams and seeks the help of the witch Keziah Mason to reach her and learn who killed her.

Fighting and alchemy

In the Pale, you can sneak past or flee from monsters, or fight them directly. Alchemy lets you mix ingredients into items that strengthen you and help in battle. You can also summon wandering spirits to fight alongside you, or face monsters alone.
