A Haunting Homage: Did you know the abandoned Niwa holiday resort in the game is based on a real location in Krakow? You can even visit it yourself! But Niwa isn't the only slice of reality depicted in The Medium. Marianne's tenement house and the square outside are also meticulously recreated.




Stepping into the Real Niwa: The mosaic adorning the resort's hall is a faithful replica, as is the entire hall itself. While the in-game hotel rooms capture the essence of the real Niwa, they are by necessity condensed for gameplay purposes.



A Tribute to Beksiński: The Spirit World wouldn't exist without the profound influence of the brilliant Zdzisław Beksiński. Several elements pay homage to him, such as the imposing Eagle in Thomas's office.



Marianne - A Beacon of Hope: In the bleakness of The Spirit World, Marianne shines like a candle in the dark. Her white hair, pale skin, and subtle ethereal glow all contribute to this symbolism.
