Eternal Recurrence
What if Groundhog Day met Lovecraftian horror?
The Aureate Solstice should be the happiest day of the year. But when an ancient entity awakens, you and your childhood sweetheart Lyra become trapped in an endless nightmare - forced to relive the same day as your village is destroyed each night by creeping shadows.
Like Edge of Tomorrow, death isn't the end - it's your greatest weapon. Each loop, you grow stronger, uncovering forbidden knowledge and forging bonds with villagers who hold the keys to breaking free. But time is running out. The entity feeds on each repetition, and the very fabric of reality begins to fray.
Together with Lyra - the only other person who remembers the loops - you must unravel the mystery of why this day repeats and discover how to banish the darkness before it consumes everything you love.
