About the Game

Two worlds, one nightmare. Step inside a brutal orphanage and uncover the dark secrets of Québec’s Great Darkness. Solve puzzles related to an inexplicable phenomenon and dive into the depths of dreams to uncover otherworldly horrors. An Abyss of Dreams is a cosmic horror point-and-click game.

As the Great Darkness descends upon the province of Quebec, young Thérèse’s world collapses. Following her mother’s death, she is sent to the Saint-Nicolas-de-la-Passion Orphanage, a place governed by brutality, silence, and unquestioned faith.

Each night, Thérèse slips into another realm. At first, it feels serene, almost beautiful, but beneath its dreamlike calm lurk unspeakable horrors. This world of dreams may hold the key to the disturbing events unfolding behind the orphanage’s walls...

An Abyss of Dreams is a 3D point-and-click cosmic horror game. Traverse two intertwined worlds, a grim orphanage and a haunting dreamscape, to uncover the source of the afflictions tormenting its children. Explore richly detailed environments, solve grounded yet surreal puzzles, and piece together a mystery. Experience a poignant, unsettling narrative that confronts the dark legacy of Quebec’s Catholic institutions and the children left in their care.
