⚜️ Cervantes' Curse ⚜️

“Not all the giants we face are real; many are born from our own madness”


Deep within a Castilian forest, under a sickly moon, you are a windmill.

Old, splintered, forgotten... and alive.

The wind is your only defense. Blow, roar, keep Don Quixote away before he pierces you with his lance, believing you to be a monster.

But beware... his madness knows no rest. Will you survive the night, or become another fallen giant in the delirium of a hidalgo?

✢ ✢ ✢

After surviving the knight’s assault, the night is not over yet.
Now you are Sancho, wandering among windmills and shadows, searching for lost objects before Don Quixote loses his sanity completely.
Collect as much as you can... before it’s too late.

Inspired by “The Ingenious Gentleman Don Quixote of La Mancha” by Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra (1605–1615).
