Штольня

Shtolnya is an atmospheric first-person psychological horror game set in the Russian countryside.

You play as a man from a remote rural area who finds himself in severe financial trouble and clings to one last chance to change his life. After hearing rumors about an old abandoned mine where gold can supposedly still be found, he decides to take the risk and go there, hoping to escape poverty.

But what begins as a dangerous trip for easy money quickly turns into a fight for survival.

Explore a decaying house, an abandoned mining site, and dark tunnels hidden deep underground. Search for key items, notice unsettling details, uncover traces that this place is far from empty, and push deeper into the darkness — where every sound, every shadow, and every wrong step could cost you your life.

Most of the mine is consumed by darkness. Your flashlight will be your only reliable source of light, but even it won’t always save you. Hide, move carefully, manage noise, and decide how far you are willing to go for a chance to make it out alive — and not empty-handed.

Shtolnya is a tense horror experience about greed, fear, the unknown, and the price a person is willing to pay for hope.
