BREAK THE LOOP

The floor you live on has turned into a loop, and all communication with the outside world has been cut off. Your neighbors’ doors now lead to strange places, and an evil child-like entity lurks in the darkness of the hallways. You must find a way out of the loop and uncover the secrets this place holds.
