OCTOBER 1790 - EAST BANK of the HUDSON

SLEEPY HOLLOW is a magically gloomy cove along the eastern shore of the Hudson river. Sailors shorten sail and murmur prayers when crossing, and are careful when entering the fog which obscures the small dock of Terry Town.  To the south, the American and British forces occupied front lines in the surrounding forests until 1783. The vast no-man’s land they left behind was now occupied by marauders and mercenaries. To the north lies the SLEEPY HOLLOW Cemetery, and the dark forests beyond.

Having recently gained independence, the inhabitants of Terry Town favor American customs over those of the Old English society such as art & poetry and science & reason are held in high regard - the Constitution was signed in 1787. However, the growth of industry brought changes to society, and in response the artistic movements of the time validated the emotional, the mysterious, and the imaginative, as well as the uniqueness of personal experience.

A beautiful game about the legend of sleepy hollow. You play as attendees to the Tarry Town harvest festival, witnessing the legend first hand. I love how the game present various activities the characters can partake in during the festival. It's refreshing to see a game structured around fixed time and events, instead of being open ended like most RPGs.

Thank you for the kind words!
