Description
The creativity of Russian author Nikolay Vasilievich Gogol is well-known all
over the world. Many people remember how smith Vakula flew to Saint-Petersburg
on a devil; how Homa Brut confronted the master of evil spirits, Vii; a witch
and mermaids from May night, or drowned woman. In Gogol's stories reality and
magic go hand in hand; the clerk and village constable mix with sorcerers and
werewolves. Against this background, near the Ukrainian small village of 18th
century Dikanka, the action of game develops.
The protagonist of the game - rural smith Vakula - is enamored with Oksana, the
first beauty of Dikanka. But Oksana presents an apparently impossible
requirement: she wants Vacula to bring her shoes that the tsarina wears.
Vakula’s adventures begin when the habitual rural life suddenly turns magical.
In the game, Vakula has to communicate with a former cossack and nowadays rural
sorcerer Patsyuk. Patsyuk becomes a guide for the hero through the magic world -
the world where miracles and habitual fancifully intertwine. Vakula learns with
great surprise that sorcerers, witches and vampires can appear among the rural
girls and young men. And it is only the beginning...
The script of the project Evenings on a farm near Dikanka is guided by Gogol’s
unique style of "household fantasy ". Gradually the game turns from a household
fairytale into magic. Adventures wait for you in the village Dikanka, in a magic
forest and in the court of the empress in Saint-Petersburg. You will meet
characters from Gogol's stories and national fairytales, plunge into the
beautiful love passions of its heroes, and take part in amusing Gogol-esque
dialogues.
