8 itemsAbout the Game
AL-SARAB is a psychological horror game inspired by classic survival horror, blending oppressive atmosphere, exploration, combat, and environmental storytelling in a dusty, decaying neighborhood that feels both familiar and deeply unsettling.
Wander through twisted alleys, abandoned spaces, and silent corners where something is clearly wrong. Search for key items, uncover hidden paths, solve grounded environmental puzzles, and survive disturbing encounters as the world around you grows more hostile and harder to understand.
Every location is built with purpose, filled with visual details, unsettling hints, and fragments of something larger waiting to be uncovered. The deeper you go, the more the city begins to feel alive — watching, shifting, and refusing to let you leave unchanged.
Face tense confrontations, explore at your own risk, and piece together a haunting experience shaped by atmosphere, dread, and the fear of what may be waiting just beyond the next corner.
