Starets

A road through Tver

Starets is a historical story game set in the Principality of Tver in 1319. You follow Nikodim, a 50-year-old starets who leaves Tver after 20 years as a princely scribe and heads for the Monastery of Saint Nicholas on the Zhabna.

Choices and records

As Nikodim travels through fields, forests, swamps, villages and other places, you decide whether to speak with people or pass them by, help them or refuse, and turn off the path or continue straight. You can also choose whom to record in Nikodim’s book. Its pages are limited, and what you write down represents the route he took and the people he met.
