The latest ritual was a success. Our huge free update to Occlude brings 24 new puzzles to the game, as well as new Archive Documents, Objects and a host of of quality of life improvements. 

Cardinals is a chunky expansion to the game, twisting six of the seven Rituals into something new, with North, South, East and West variants. And it's out now. 

Seven to Thirty-One. 

Each Cardinal twists its parent Ritual's rules in fresh, unexpected ways. Your journey grows from seven puzzles to thirty-one, each demanding ingenuity and persistence in equal parts.

Discover four unlockable Objects, each with their own Documents, alongside new Gameplay Settings that enhance the entire experience of Occlude. Master the Cardinals and discover that each solution you knew was only the beginning.

To unlock the Cardinals, complete the first six Rituals to all four coins on either mode.
