A Tale of Faith, Duty, and Sacrifice

In Penance: Knightfall, players step into the role of Cain, the youngest knight of his order, as the divine order collapses. When the Trinity vanishes and the gates of Hell stand unguarded, demonic forces overrun the mortal realm. Amidst this chaos, a rising Vampire Lord carves out his own dominion, leaving Cain to confront hard choices about faith, loyalty, and survival.

With history and mythology woven together, the game explores existential questions through a dark, atmospheric setting, all brought to life with evocative pixel art.
