About
Lizzy is a girl living in The Boarding, a walled city surrounded by fog. All who live here serve the mysterious Mother Matron, its revered leader who hasn’t been seen in person in many years. Periodically, the Mother Matron selects residents to become Surveyors, tasked with exploring the dark unknown tunnels that lie underground to find the key to a better future for the collective. The odds of survival are slim to none. It is an honor and a death sentence. One day, Lizzy finds herself on the draft...
Using your wits and quick thinking, you must guide Lizzy through the dangers beneath. Will you survive? Will you find Paradise? Or will you be lost to the dark forever?
For Mother Matron is a passion project inspired by Silent Hill, Spirit Hunter: Death Mark, bizarro fiction, and the works of Thomas Ligotti.

i had lots of fun playing this game, it took my about 3 sittings to fully get through the game. This was a very interesting story!
Didn't finish the game yet. Cried 10/10
This is a really good game. I played it in full on a separate account, and over all its really well done. While I would have enjoyed a little more plot in the [spoiler] cave esc area when you receive the note, (I can't remember what it's called) where you go down there with Pux and Rich. [/spoiler] It would have been cool to have that go on a little longer, but other than that its amazing. As someone that currently deals with horrific things in life, it really touched me and made me feel less alone. I can really relate to the whole "existence is just suffering, and it may have been better to have not existed at all" and I think it conveys a good message, and theme. Loved this game. Would play again.

Nice horror story.
Игра 'For Mother Matron' – это интересная смесь симулятора жизни и мрачной сказки. Визуально игра выполнена в уникальном, немного жутковатом стиле, который отлично передает атмосферу заброшенного поместья и гнетущей тайны. Игровой процесс, сосредотачивающийся на выполнении рутинных задач и общении с немногочисленными обитателями, поначалу может показаться монотонным, но постепенно раскрываются темные секреты и взаимосвязи персонажей. Выбор, который делает игрок, имеет значительное влияние на развитие сюжета и судьбу жителей поместья, что добавляет реиграбельности. Необходимо тщательно взвешивать каждое решение, ведь последствия могут быть непредсказуемыми. Особенно хочется отметить музыкальное сопровождение, которое идеально создает нужное настроение и подчеркивает драматичность происходящего. Несмотря на некоторую медлительность геймплея, 'For Mother Matron' цепляет своей атмосферой и нетривиальным сюжетом. Если вы любите игры с глубоким смыслом, моральным выбором и мрачной эстетикой, то обязательно стоит попробовать.
