PLEASE CONFIRM THE DECEASED Demo

This free demo is the first two nights of the shift: the hatch, the file, the covered gurney behind the glass, and a rulebook that already has more pages than anyone mentioned at the interview.

Quarantine any intake presenting vital signs. Do not open the bag. Do not speak to it.

Night shift at a municipal morgue. A bell rings. Paperwork comes through the hatch. Behind the observation glass, a covered gurney rolls into the intake bay. The clerk's job is written down: confirm that the paperwork and the body are the same thing.

PLEASE CONFIRM THE DECEASED is a gatekeeper horror game about procedure: a form that is nearly right, a weight that is nearly correct, and a rulebook that keeps adding pages you would rather not have read.

Reject any intake whose measured weight differs from the certificate by 10 kg or more.

Read the file: the death certificate and the transfer manifest. Any of the names, weights, heights, dates or signatures may be lying. Check the body with the scale, the measuring tape, the thermometer and the stethoscope. Stamp ACCEPT, QUARANTINE or REJECT. Or call your supervisor, if you still have a call left.

An intake reading 30 °C or above is not cold. What is not cold is not accepted.

Three pages of rules on your first night, and the second night adds more. The newest page overrules the older ones.

Each intake is processed once. If you have seen the name before, you have not.

That page arrives on the second night, and so does a name you have already processed.

Requisitions

Correct signatures pay and wrong ones cost. After the first night you can spend your pay on what the job does not provide: a UV lamp, a bolt for the door that holds exactly once, a spare fuse. You are always short of something.

After the second night

The full game is seven nights of intake, about two to three hours, written in advance and dealt procedurally so no two clerks work the same shift.

Nothing is ever uncovered. The horror is paper, stamps, fluorescent tubes, a covered shape behind observation glass, and a reading you take twice because the first one cannot be right.

PLEASE CONFIRM THE DECEASED is written and designed under one author's direction: its narrative, rules and case files are human–AI co-written and human-edited, and the design is the author's. Its background plates and props are pre-generated with AI image tools under human art direction; every document, form, stamp and interface element is drawn in code. Music and sound are produced with AI assistance under the author's direction. Nothing is generated while you play.
