About this game Read the full description
WARNING: This video game may cause seizures in people with photosensitive epilepsy. Play at your own risk.
You explore a strange house as you start to see and hear nerve-wracking things...
Environment
At midnight, an ordinary home turns into a nightmare. Twisted by neglect and waste, nature’s wrath lurks in the shadows. Every creak, every whisper is a warning - something is watching. With only a flickering light, uncover the horror you helped create.
Plot
On a stormy night, you wake up in a house that feels both familiar and wrong. The rooms shift when you're not looking, hallways stretch endlessly, and doors lead to places they shouldn’t. Something is off - objects move, whispers echo through empty rooms, and a presence lingers in the darkness.
As you explore, the house twists against you, revealing fragments of a forgotten past. The more you uncover, the more reality distorts. You are not alone here… but you may wish you were.
The house itself is your enemy. Will you escape, or become part of it forever?
Dark Presence
Something lurks in the shadows, unseen but never absent. You may catch glimpses—a shifting silhouette, a whisper in the dark - but the more you notice it, the closer it gets. It doesn’t chase. It doesn’t speak. It just lingers… watching.
Game Mechanics
Navigate an ever-changing house where reality bends against you. Doors lead to unexpected places, hallways shift, and familiar rooms become unfamiliar. You must explore carefully—your surroundings are not as they seem.
Light is your only ally, but it is unreliable. Objects move when you're not looking, and the more you notice the strange occurrences, the worse they become. The truth is hidden in scattered fragments, waiting to be uncovered… if you dare to face it.
