Upon being told that he didn't qualify for a tax deduction because the required amount he needs to donate to charity increased, the incensed man does the [[SarcasmMode only reasonable action]] and enacts a dark ritual to terrorize the hospital his donations went to, blaming them for his losses.

Aiding them in their plight is Hannah, who wishes to keep her boss's rash behaviour from claiming any lives by warning the two about what to watch out for.
Gameplay is set in a series of (InUniverse) [[TimedMission hour long chunks]]. Each hour, Hannah will warn your current PlayerCharacter what to watch out for, and the player has until the end of the hour to make sure everything is in order to keep the demon at bay. With each attack thwarted, new sources of power for the demon will be added, requiring every nook and cranny of the hospital to be searched.
The game is available for free on [[https://zed-technician.itch.io/the-vermander-curse itch.io]].

** ''Arrested'': This ending is achieved if at least one employee survives until the sunrise, but at least one person was taken by the demon.

However, Vermander's influence over the police force results in the surviving hospital employees being framed and arrested, forcing the hospital to close down, causing the town to suffer.

** ''[[GoldenEnding Vermander's Curse]]'': This ending is achieved by having everyone survive until sunrise. [[spoiler: The demon failed to spill any blood that night, so the Vermander Pact is null and void. Now free, the demon takes their revenge on Vermander, but by some miracle, the man barely clings to life. Thanks to the kindness of Hannah, who came across her boss's body and took him to the hospital, as well as Nurse Morton and Doctor Eda, who treated their would-be murderer with the same respect they did for their other patients, Vermander had a [[HeelFaceTurn change of heart]], doing whatever it took to make amends, even selling his estate in the face of the crippling debt he now faced as a result of the Pact being broken.
