Betrayer is a first person action adventure game that takes you to the New World at the turn of the 17th century.

The year is 1604. You sailed from England expecting to join a struggling colony on the coast of Virginia. Instead, you find only ghosts and mysteries. What catastrophe blighted the land and drained it of color and life? Where are the settlers and tribes who lived here?

Clue by clue, you must piece together the story of what befell this doomed settlement and find a way to set things right. You will be hunted by corrupted Conquistadors and ravening shadows as you explore an expansive wilderness in order to trace the brief, tragic history of the colony and search for survivors.

Is it worth a playthrough?

It's an atmospheric sort of proof of concept but I didn't find it very compelling. I've played better source mods.

It is literally free. Just download and find out if you like it.

Personally, I would recommend it!

My backlog is already huge, just wanted an opinion if it is worth my time :)

Will check it

I've got a lot more money than time. I get to take like 4 hours a week so it's gotta count.

Oh neat, thank you! I'll have to download that.

I remember playing this and thinking the idea was cool and I liked the atmosphere, but the game felt barebones. I literally can't remember if I finished it. For free, I'd say it's worth a look. I don't think it was supposed to be very long. Just expect lots of slow, atmospheric time.
