A Infestação

Defend your territory from the growing plague threatening the ecosystem.

In "A Infestação", you play as a fisherman facing a dangerous "musaranho" (shrews) infestation threatening the ecosystem balance. Armed with a shotgun and constantly moving, run, fight, and protect your territory from this growing plague of different-sized creatures along the shoreline while controlling their population through combat.

Game through culture

Players embody a Portuguese fisherman defending coastal territory from shrews infestation, transforming the Óbidos legend into an environmental protection narrative. The game explores cultural themes of community responsibility, territorial defense, and human-nature balance, where traditional fishing communities must actively preserve their ecosystem against supernatural threats rooted in local folklore.
