The year is 1389. The Serbian army, led by Tzar Lazar, clashed with the vast forces of the Ottoman Empire in their ruthless conquest. Thousands have fallen, rivers run red with blood — but far greater evils still lie in wait. With the knights slain, the ancient protector has also fallen, leaving the mythical Tower of Prizren unguarded...
NYIP is a top-down action RPG with souls-like combat, set in a grim fantasy world shaped by the forgotten myths and brutal history of medieval Serbia. As the smoke still rises over the battlefield of Kosovo, something ancient stirs — navs, the death-spirits of Slavic folklore, now walk among the corpses.
Drawn by visions of the Prizren Tower — a mystical structure said to bridge realms — you, the player, are called to step into a world where dynasties crumble and forgotten gods stir in the shadows. Face legendary figures reimagined through a mythic lens, battle twisted creatures born from authentic Slavic lore, and ultimately decide the fate of Kosovo by claiming the Tower itself.
Will you rise to shape destiny — or will you be consumed by it?
Step into a bold, historically sensitive interpretation of one of Balkan history's most impactful and symbolically charged battles. We don’t recreate history — we reimagine its echoes through the lens of dark fantasy.
The Battle of Kosovo has lived on for centuries — not only in chronicles, but in poetry, epic songs, and the collective memory of an entire region. Yet, no game until now has dared to approach its mythic weight. NYIP bridges historical reverence with immersive storytelling, treating the past not as a fixed set of facts, but as fertile ground for emotional and symbolic exploration.
NYIP invites players into a setting unlike any other — a world where history, legend, and folklore intertwine across the haunted remnants of medieval Serbia. This is a land shaped by real locations, real names, and real echoes of a cultural past rarely explored in games.
From the mist-veiled ruins of Samodreža Church to the cursed fields of Kosovo Polje, every environment is rooted in authentic geography and lore. Here, myth walks hand in hand with history: encounter reimagined figures such as Vila Ravijojla, the ethereal guardian of warriors; Tzarizza Milica, torn between duty and prophecy; Vuk Branković, shrouded in betrayal and shadow; Miloš Obilić, elevated to near-mythic vengeance; and even Sultan Murat, caught in a fate that defies time...
NYIP offers challenging, deliberate combat rooted in the souls-like tradition — every strike matters, every dodge is a choice, and every encounter could be your last. But brute strength alone won’t carry you. The world itself must be understood: its symbols, its silences, and the ancient forces that still whisper beneath its soil.
On your journey, you collect nav souls, that are not just for leveling but could also be used for casting spells. Each spell is bound to the shield you carry, and it gives you both passive buffs - such as resistance or auras, as well as active components in form of damage and de-buff spells.
NYIP offers multiple endings — each reflecting the stories you uncover and the choices you dared to make.
We are currently developing the first playable demo. If this world intrigues you, adding NYIP to your wishlist means more than you think — it helps us bring this forgotten mythology to life, one sword swing at a time.
