Blacktail is a first-person shooter with elements of action-adventure games. Players control a girl named Yaga (a younger incarnation of Baba Yaga), who was exiled from her village on accusations of witchcraft. Yaga must hunt down memories of her past that have come to life as spirits, while searching for her missing sister. Yaga has no melee weapons, but can shoot using her bow, dash away from enemies, or pull them around using a broom. She can also craft a number of useful potions and different types of ammunition using resources found in the forest, the main level of the game. Aside from completing the main story, players may also participate in a number of side quests that reward Yaga with Lost Pages, items that can be spent to improve her combat abilities. A "morality system" feature, affected by Yaga's inclinations towards good or evil, determines the power of a number of her capabilities, as well as limiting how she can interact with non-player characters (NPCs). Players can alter Yaga's inclination by performing "good" tasks such as saving birds, or "evil" tasks like shooting animals. The state of Yaga's morality system also affects the ending of the game.
