Step into the soot-stained glamour of 1940s Hartford, Connecticut, in Encoria!, a first-person Circus RPG inspired by a chilling true story. As the newly hired Ringmaster, you are the architect of spectacle - orchestrate breathtaking performances by directing your talent and engaging with the performers and environment to keep the crowd roaring. Capture the audience’s claps to manifest Encoria stones, a mystical currency used to unlock the heavy doors of the circus grounds and reveal the dark secrets hidden within the shadows of the backstage rooms . Between the shows, the greasepaint comes off, and the real drama begins. Navigate the labyrinthine backstage rooms to play minigames, immersing you in The Silly Circus . Through conversation, you’ll uncover the personal histories and existential fears of your performers, strengthening your team’s resolve before the next curtain rises. When tragedy strikes, the game shifts into a pulse-pounding survival horror experience. As a catastrophic fire engulfs the tent, you must navigate the chaos and save who you can. Every second is a gamble as you dodge lethal flames and gore-streaked wreckage to pull your performers from the inferno. Featuring a haunting, "lo-fi" aesthetic with low-poly 3D models and hand-painted textures, Encoria! blends nostalgic charm with visceral horror . Can you maintain the magic of the circus, or will you lose everything to the flames?
