It is the Day of the Dead! Also known in Spanish: Día de los Muertos. 

You stumble upon a temple with tortured souls. Upon further exploration, you find a room with a special flower - a marigold of souls. 

Throwing the marigold frees the tortured souls within, however with a cost. The more you use the marigold, the more you feel like you are from the dead.

Escape the temple and free tortured souls, or be a part of the dead!

Gameplay is like Hades meets Journey of the Prairie King
