Sagebrush – This is an unconventional horror. It lacks monsters, screamers, total darkness and other traditional ways to terrify the player. Instead, the developers focused on the story and feelings of the main character. In the past, she was a member of a sect, whose members committed suicide at the behest of the leader, the self-proclaimed prophet James. And the protagonist turned out to be the only one who was lucky enough to stay alive. And years later, she returned to the ranch, where the cult used to be, to sort herself out.

Sagebrush is not very long. The game can be completed in 1 or 2 hours. It should be noted that the project is based on real events, and the sect depicted in it has absorbed the features of many real cults. The main gameplay is devoted to exploring the area – the heroine wanders around the building and the surrounding area, studies objects and notes. In this way, her inner world is demonstrated, as well as the past of her deceased brothers in faith.

There are also no battles or complex puzzles. The puzzles are mostly represented by searches for keys, notes and videos. Most of the characters are depicted as ambiguous people. Among the ordinary followers there are no pure righteous people or hardened villains – they are rather ordinary people, confused in their own desires and vices. To emphasize this atmosphere, the developers implemented special sound and music accompaniment.
