Pathologic 2 (2019)
Pathologic 2 is a 2019 role-playing (rpg) video game made by Ice-Pick Lodge and tinyBuild.
Pathologic 2 is a reimagining of the original, focused on the Haruspex, Artemy Burakh. You return to your plague-stricken hometown as a surgeon-healer caught between local kinship traditions, colonial urban power, impossible medicine, hunger, exhaustion, and a clock that never stops. Compared with the 2005 game, it is more mechanically coherent and cinematic, but still intentionally punishing: you are meant to triage, fail, compromise, and live with irreversible consequences.
