The Plague Master of Grimmenhoek

The plague stalks the city of Grimmenhoek, and the masked doctors with their beaked masks seem the only hope. They hand out medicine, burn the dead, and whisper words of comfort. The desperate people trust them blindly.

But the sick they visit die the fastest, and the vials of 'medicine' are brimming with contagion. The Pestmeester and his beaked cult worship a god of decay and sow the plague as an offering, every corpse a prayer. The more they 'help,' the further the sickness spreads.

You have to unravel the truth without succumbing yourselves: compare symptoms, steal a vial and have it examined, get a dying witness to talk, follow the doctors through the fog-choked alleys to their hidden cellar. Along the way you are exposed yourselves, and the fever starts to tick.

The twist: the Pestmeester is no charlatan but a true believer who feeds his god in the flesh with every death, and beneath his beaked mask he smiles as the plague writhes to life around him into a breathing thing of sores and beaked doctors. You must spread the real antidote and defeat the Pestmeester before he unleashes the final, lethal outbreak, weak with fever, in a city on its deathbed.
