About the Game
Pathologic 3 continues the cult series about a mysterious plague in a distant steppe city.

In this psychological horror game, you are a doctor with only 12 days to save a town from a mysterious plague. Make ruthless decisions and diagnose with precision. Shape the town’s future and rewrite the past. Hold yourself together while it all falls apart.
