Dear Song of Horror fans,
We are introducing our biggest update to date right now! This patch features important changes to Episode 4, bringing it closer to the experience we originally wanted to create. As such, you can expect new features and improvements destined to craft a scarier, and tenser atmosphere throughout the whole episode (which means you are going to have a really bad time!).
Here's the new content we are adding to Episode 4 (and a couple of tweaks in Episode 3!):
UPDATE 1.14
EPISODE 4
- 25 new paranormal events: St. Cecilia's Abbey is officially the most haunted place in Song of Horror. You can expect more scares than ever before!
- An original collectible: The Tarot Deck. Find five fate-altering confessions from those consumed by The Presence to resist its most lethal attacks.
- New cutscenes + animation fixes: We introduced more cinematic moments and tweaked several animations from characters during said scenes.
- A new illustrated cutscene at the end of the episode, adding more context and emotion before the last episode.
- The "Ornate keys" now combine into a single item upon having more than one of them.
- Blocked a door that should not have opened from the start (It was The Presence trying to mess with us!)
- The Scriptorium blocked door can now be opened from the inside, more exploration possibilities!
- Removed Cold event from St. Cecilia's Abbey: we feel this manifestation of The Presence was redundant, and that this Episode's pace benefits from its removal.
- Deeper color scheme: both the interiors and exteriors of St. Cecilia are now visually enhanced
- Improved sound ambient: events, animations, and scenes display better sounding effects
- Several bugs fixes, gameplay tweaks, and quality-of-life improvements throughout the whole episode.

EPISODE 3
- Tweaks on Interlude: End of the Road. We reworked the main puzzle of Husher's Interlude to add more depth in both its explanation and solution.
- A new cutscene at the end of the Episode involving The Presence (spooky!)
- Lightning enhancements in the Great Library: to improve the final section of the Episode
