Set in 1920s Ireland, players take on the role of Magnus, who has been summoned to an ancestral estate by its lone descendent Jeremiah. Death has claimed his four siblings, each who have reanimated intent on slaying their living brother, the last of the family, so as to free the Curse of the Undying King.
In order to save his friend and unravel the curse that has befallen Jeremiahs family, Magnus must embark on five perilous quests before he can unearth the final horror of the estate.
Each quest brings Magnus face-to-face with one of Jeremiahs undead siblings and the strange and wicked creatures the curse has attracted. In addition, Magnus must triumph over his reviled competitor Kiesinger. If there is power to be had by unearthing the mystery of the estate then Kiesinger will try and steal it - and there is much power to be had. Its up to Magnus to defeat each of Jeremiahs siblings and vanquish Kiesinger in order to quell the Undying King.
