The Bloody Cross

Living Bones

Monetized/For‑Profit

The Bloody Cross is a short, top-down narrative game that explores sin, guilt, and redemption through a raw Christian lens. Players ascend a symbolic mountain of moral striving, confronting temptation, trauma, and spiritual struggle — culminating in a powerful encounter with Jesus, who offers forgiveness and calls them to follow him to the cross. The game is emotionally intense and unafraid to depict addiction, shame, suicide, and the cost of grace.
