The Black Cat: Usher's Legacy Is a New Visual Novel Based on Edgar Allan Poe’s Stories

MazM's latest visual novel, The Black Cat: Usher's Legacy, plunges players into the chilling world of Edgar Allan Poe. This Android game draws inspiration from Poe's iconic tales, including "The Black Cat," "The Fall of the House of Usher," and elements of "The Tell-Tale Heart," crafting a narrative steeped in guilt, madness, and unsettling realities.

Familiar Poetic Horror

Fans of Poe's work will recognize the signature style: a world where death is not merely an ending, but a constant presence, woven into the fabric of daily life. The Black Cat focuses on creeping dread, hidden tragedies, and the confrontation of inner demons. The horror is primarily psychological, exploring themes of evil, fate, and the inescapable consequences of buried secrets.

MazM's signature storytelling shines through, with dark visuals and a haunting soundtrack perfectly complementing the game's atmosphere. See it in action:

Dive into Poe's Gothic Nightmares

MazM continues its tradition of reimagining literary classics, following their successful adaptation of Kafka's Metamorphosis. The Black Cat: Usher's Legacy transforms Poe's gothic horror into a captivating visual novel experience.

While initially free-to-play, unlocking the complete story requires a purchase. Download it now on the Google Play Store.
