The Serpent Rogue

The Serpent Rogue - the world is perishing from corruption, which is sent by the Serpentine Apostate, who has settled on the top of Mount Morbus. The battle with him is taken on by the plague doctor - the Guardian, who knows a lot about mysterious alchemy and is not afraid of working with dangerous infusions. The weapon here is knowledge. Cauldrons are boiling in the laboratory, potions are brewed from found herbs and rare ingredients, and new recipes have to be obtained along the journey, since there are simply no ready-made schemes at the beginning. Sometimes the necessary herbs are guarded by creatures, and rare mushrooms grow in the most dangerous places. You will have to walk through voluminous lands where you will come across secret passages, resource deposits and traps. Animals can be tamed, and some elixirs allow you to temporarily transform into local creatures and gain their abilities. Residents of abandoned lands ask for help, and it is not easy to refuse them: someone is dying of illness, someone is being pestered by creatures. Each rescue changes the attitude of the settlements towards the doctor, and supplies and time are consumed inexorably. Potions heal, give vision in the dark, scare away animals and help you get through rubble. Some of the monsters can be bypassed by slipping in bait, and then fights can be avoided along entire sections of the path. The laboratory expands as discoveries are made: new cauldrons, shelves and dryers for herbs appear in it, and recipes are compiled into a separate book. Meanwhile, the corruption is spreading, and it is impossible to stagnate in one place for a long time: the contaminated lands take away the strength of the doctor himself. For everyone who loves atmospheric adventures with alchemy, experimentation and leisurely exploration of cursed lands.
