From an unknown quack to a reputable Plague Doctor, watch the plague unfold before your eyes. Gather ingredients, brew remedies, expand your clinic, and perform surgeries alone or up to 4 player co-op. Will you uphold the Hippocratic Oath... or watch the world rot and darken with every death.

Build your reputation from a suspected quack to a reputable Plague Doctor, all while witnessing the spread of the plague day by day.<img class="bb_img" src="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/4221910/extras/ceb2f5496d8192a1c0bf1660d039a25f.avif?t=1764712472" width=780 height=92 /><video class="bb_img" autoplay muted loop playsinline crossorigin="anonymous" poster="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/4221910/extras/bc5c6e761479a440a94166701b75c046.poster.avif?t=1764712472" width=780 height=438 ><source src="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/4221910/extras/bc5c6e761479a440a94166701b75c046.webm?t=1764712472" type="video/webm; codecs=vp9"></video>Step outside the safety of the village walls into an open world filled with natural resources.
