About the Game

Attachment Error is a psychological horror experience about a system that reacts to unresolved emotion.

You play as Amal, a game tester evaluating a VR prototype from inside his own apartment. Your objective is clear: test the build, score points, eliminate a hostile entity.

But the system doesn’t behave consistently.

During the day, the apartment changes in subtle, unsettling ways. At night, memories surface — familiar places, quiet conversations, moments that feel safer than the present. These sequences don’t explain themselves, and they don’t ask permission.

Your choices shape something the game never names.
