About Pathologic 3

Pathologic 3 is a psychological horror game in which you play Daniil Dankovsky, a rationalist doctor trying to defeat death itself as the same doomed town collapses around him. It is a standalone follow-up to Pathologic 2 and a reimagining of the Bachelor route from the original Pathologic, rather than a direct sequel or prequel. Its major new distinction is time manipulation: the premise remains a 12-day plague crisis, but the Bachelor can revisit and alter key events, reflecting his obsession with control, causality, and conquering death.
