Pre-orders are now live ahead of the launch on July 28!

Inspired by the haunting Welsh folklore tale of Elisabeth Williams, Maid of Sker draws players back to 1898 to venture through the shadowy halls of Sker Hotel. Armed only with a defensive sound-device, players will have to keep eyes open and stay alert through the waking nightmare in order to solve the supernatural mystery that hangs over the Sker Hotel.

Pre-orders on Steam are available with a 10% discount.

Exclusively on Steam, all pre-orders will receive the downloadable soundtrack for free.

Experience the beautifully haunting and iconic soundtrack, featuring 14 tracks composed exclusively for the game by Gareth Lumb. Featuring the enthralling Welsh hymns Calon Lân and Suo Gân.

[h3]🧠 The Mind behind the Music - Interview with Sound Director and Composer Gareth Lumb (if it makes a noise, it was him)[/h3]

"I would call the music setup in Maid of Sker “pseudo-dynamic”. I try to keep the score fairly dynamic so that it mirrors what’s going on during gameplay. It’s so important for the music to respond sympathetically to gameplay cues."

Now you've seen sound devices in use, you've seen the breathing mechanic, the sound-based AI enemies, the inventory system... now we'd like to share a few details on the save system (a common question we receive!)

Yes, you can manually save your game via our Phonographs.

We welcome you to indulge in the use of the Phonographs, a device for the mechanical recording and reproduction of sound. Invented by Thomas Edison, the American inventor who gave us the Electric light bulb, it transitioned into the gramophone, which led to what we still use today — the vinyl record player.

Our Phonographs offer safety, allowing you to catch your breath and save your game, listen to the recordings and unlock the mysteries lurking within the Sker Hotel.

Upgrade your stay by adding the game to your Steam Wishlist!

Now the gates are opening, we will see you soon.
