About
Renowned artist Theobald Breitsam is found dead in his workshop, surrounded by occult symbols and hundreds of black feathers. His body is covered in wounds - but they were made by no blade. They were inflicted by something that should not be possible.
The city council already has a suspect accused of witchcraft and is pressing for a swift verdict before panic spreads.
Conrad is the town's executioner. His duty is to carry out sentences - not to question them.
But something is terribly wrong.
Is it witchcraft? Superstition? Or is there a truth behind these events that defies every rational explanation?
The deeper Conrad digs, the less human this case becomes.
As the town's executioner, Conrad belongs to the so-called "dishonourables" - people forced to live on the fringes of society. Feared. Shunned. Yet indispensable.
Precisely because of this, doors open to him that remain closed to everyone else. He speaks with beggars and patricians, prisoners and priests. He moves between taverns, prison cells and council chambers, following a trail of contradictions and carefully concealed secrets.
Executioner Conrad knows the darkest sides of human nature. But this time, he is facing something darker still.
Someone - or something - is watching him.
Play as an Executioner
Step into the role of a man who is feared as much as he is despised. As the town's executioner, you move freely between every layer of society, gaining insights denied to everyone else.
Where judges remain silent, priests evade the truth and citizens guard their secrets, Conrad can ask the questions no one else dares to ask.
Solve an Impossible Murder
Follow the clues, question witnesses and uncover secrets buried deep beneath the surface of a Renaissance town. Black feathers. Occult symbols. And a truth no one dares to speak aloud.
Not every witness tells the truth. Not every clue leads to the answer. And some secrets may have been better left buried.

Explore more than 50 handcrafted locations, from the executioner's tower and winding alleyways to the council chambers of the powerful.

Nice little game with a nice story and cool pixel art.
Simply beautyful! Gorgeous graphics, music and story. Matbe a Little short, but absolutely enjoyable and making you asking for more. Reminds me of the old times with Lucasfilm games. Recommendend
The Silver Crow, developer Uwe Sittig’s interactive tale of mystery, is self-published through his company Dreamagination. The story’s strong threads of fear, mistrust, betrayal and redemption will definitely ensnare adventurers. Adventurers navigate the snares using a context-sensitive point-and-click interface. Beautiful pixel-art and lovely music are the foundation for settings where many interesting characters live. These characters challenge adventurers with plot-driven puzzles. Solving them unlocks a satisfying ending. The Silver Crow is an adventure that shouldn’t be missed.

Ok
Tolles Point and Click Adventure, mit nicht all zu schweren Rätseln. Leider etwas zu kurz.
Ein schönes nostalgisches Pixel-Point-and-Click-Adventure für alle, die dem Genre hold sind. Es sieht, finde ich, sehr schön aus. Die nicht vorhandene Sprachausgabe stört mich nicht weiter, gabs bei den Klassikern ja auch nicht. Und schließlich sprechen wir hier auch von einem Spiel, das von nur einer Person erstellt wurde. Dafür meinen großen Respekt! Die Rätsel waren nicht zu schwer, hätten zwar gerne ein paar mehr sein dürfen und ne längere Spielzeit (ich hab ca 4,5 Stunden gebraucht, hab aber auch alles Mögliche untersucht), aber wie gesagt für das Werk einer Person bin ich da schon sehr angetan. Und darauf kann man ja auch aufbauen. Ich komme selbst aus Franken und habe mich sehr gefreut, ein Spiel gefunden zu haben, das hier stattfindet. Ich habe einige Anspielungen an Personen und Örtlichkeiten denke ich erkannt (wenn auch vielleicht nicht alle). Gerade die Figur des Scharfrichters fand ich da gut gezeichnet. Ich wünsche dem Spiel viel Erfolg und vielleicht wird es ja auch mal eine Fortsetzung geben (nur das Kind tut mir dann leid... sorry Gumpert, du musst jetzt mit diesem Namen leben, ich konnte nichts mehr tun).
Ein wunderschönes, kleines Adventure. Es ist eher eine Art von Detektivgeschichte, in der man in einer mitteralterlichen Szenarie, als "Henker der Stadt", einen Mord aufkläre muss. Mich erinnert dieses Spiel stark an die Serie "Apotheker Melchior". Die Grafik ist wunderschön, die musikalische Untermalung ist stimmig und passt. Die Dialoge sind klar und einleuchtend und man bleibt durch die vorhandene Schlichtheit der Aufgaben, kaum bis garnicht stecken. Ich hoffe, falls Uwe wieder ein Spiel erschafft, dass er evtl. vorher ein Crowdfunding organisiert und somit die Nutzung von KI-Unterstützung damit unterbinden kann, um evtl. einen Grafiker an seine Seite zu holen ;-). Ich kann aber hier klar eine Empfehlung aussprechen. Perfekt für einen entspannten Sonntag. Ein Blindflug durch das Spiel kann hier angeschaut werden: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLAHthDbU8HPI Viel Spaß! :-) P.S.: Läuft direkt auf Linux, dank Proton. Einfach installieren und loszocken :-D.
Ein kurzer Ausflug ins düstere Mittelalter! Dieses kleine aber feine Point&Click Adventure in Pixeloptik ist für alle Rätzelfreunde und solche die es werden wollen. Klärt mit einem sympatischen Henkerheiler einen mysteriösen Mord auf und erkundet dabei ein liebenswertes Städtchen. Auch ohne Hexsische Rituale macht dieses Spiel viel Spaß!
hermosa aventura grafica
Would really love to give this a Meh review tbh! Think I'm about half way through on my Youtube channel, and enjoying it so far; but it feels a bit like a point and click adventure *lite*, where the puzzles are all very straightforward and it's more of a narrative driven point and click prompt game... Story is interesting and the artwork is appealing though, just wish it was harder!
