"Mariam Game" is a very interesting game, story, and gameplay. It depends on three styles of play, story mode, card mode, and action mode. "Mariam Game" draws inspiration from the life of a young girl in 18th-century Middle East, entwined in a mysterious connection with ghosts. With careful attention to pacing, atmosphere, and storytelling, the horror in our game emanates from the atmosphere and storytelling, not from loud sounds and artificial effects.
