Mobile Debut: Spooky Welsh Horror "Maid of Sker" Haunts Smartphones

The acclaimed horror game, Maid of Sker, is making its way to mobile devices! Developed by Wales Interactive, this chilling experience delves into gruesome tales of piracy, torture, and supernatural mysteries. Initially launched in July 2020 for PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One, it's now poised to terrify mobile gamers.

Just How Frightening Is It?

Set in 1898 within the ominous Sker Hotel on the Welsh coast, Maid of Sker plunges players into a world of dark secrets and spine-tingling Welsh hymns. Drawing inspiration from Welsh folklore, particularly the legend of Y Ferch o’r Sger (The Maid of Sker), the narrative unfolds.

Players assume the role of Thomas Evans, whose girlfriend, Elisabeth Williams, enlists his help in investigating her family's unsettling behavior. However, the situation escalates as the hotel's sinister control by a group known as 'The Quiet Ones' is revealed.

These enemies, while blind, possess acutely sensitive hearing. The slightest sound puts you in immediate danger, and unlike many horror games, gunfire isn't an option. Stealth and silence are your only allies. The gameplay echoes the tension of the film A Quiet Place. A handy gadget temporarily stuns enemies, but it's not a limitless resource. Prepare for a truly immersive and unsettling experience!
