The Season of the Warlock, previously known as The Weird Story of Waldemar The Warlock, is a classic point and click adventure game which combines vintage horror with dark humour. Mostly 2D, with very detailed and artistically painted backgrounds. It is our contribution to a genre that we believe in and enjoy.

Our adventure is set in the fictitious realm of Groldavia. Once upon a time ruled by a fiendish feudal lord (Starosta) called Waldemar Gorobec, this is a country steeped in legends.

One of the myths surrounding Waldemar is that he was a warlock of unimaginable power and cruelty, until finally he was betrayed by his closest apprentices and burned at the pyre by a frenzied populace…

Centuries later, his life and work form the subject of devoted study for Alistair Ainsworth, an english lord obsessed with the occult. He is so immersed in his research that he has set up his living quarters at the old castle that used to belong to the fabled necromancer, with the sole company of Nigel, his loyal, if somewhat rascally, butler.

Both of them will soon be up to their noses in the mysteries hidden within the ancient walls of the castle which seem to emanate from the imposing and compelling portrait of the warlock himself. This painting appears to be the depositary of Waldemar´s errant soul, a soul that is still yearning to carry out its grisly vengeance and that will present Lord Alistair with an offer he will not be able to resist.. or will he?
