The Book of Plagues (AppID: 3538250)

The plague has descended upon the city of Ludwig. You are a plague doctor — the last barrier between life and chaos.

Step into the role of a doctor in a dying city. Diagnose, heal, and make brutal decisions. Impose quarantines, burn infected houses, fight panic and rumors. Every action has a price — and not everyone will survive it...

The plague spares neither the poor nor the noble. Ludwig is drowning in death, panic, and despair. You’re not just fighting the disease — you’re fighting what it leaves behind: lies, fear, madness, and bodies no one dares to bury.

Being a doctor in Ludwig is dangerous — but profitable. Every patient is willing to pay for a chance to survive. Buy rare recipes, mix ingredients, craft powerful remedies, and improve your skills. Become the best physician… at least for those who can still be saved.

The game unfolds week by week, and each patient brings a new challenge. From beggars to nobles — everyone needs your help. Diagnose illnesses, treat them through tense mini-games, and brew potions in your old distiller.

Your only companion is a crow named Bane. He mocks, advises, ridicules, and comments on your every move… but only you can hear him. Is he a clever ally, a symptom of madness, or the voice of your conscience?

The Book of Plagues is a dark and deeply atmospheric game that blends moral dilemmas, black humor, and the madness of the medieval world. Inspired by the chronicles of the Black Death and classic literature, it throws you into the heart of an epidemic where every choice has consequences.

Will you become the city’s savior — or its final sentence? Add to your wishlist and don’t miss the coming of the Plague.
