Manes in Cadentia

Story and setting

Manes in Cadentia is a narrative-focused rhythm game for PC. You follow a woman searching for answers, guided by mysterious figures who seem familiar. The story draws on the works of Edgar Allan Poe and unfolds across five acts, as her investigation becomes personal.

Rhythm and performance

Each act takes place on a stage-like set, where dialogue, atmosphere, and rhythm performances reveal parts of the story. You play through scenes including a rain-soaked ride, a funeral, a hospital, and places where memory and reality blur. The game has four difficulty modes and one ending.
