About the Game

The Anomaly

An unknown signal was detected after the war. The source of the signal jumped around the world. Governments kept it a secret but researched it wherever they could locate it. They have thrown items into it, poked it, scanned it, talked to it, but could not figure out its purpose. One thing they knew is that whoever they sent in, never came back. You are one of them. A researcher and subject.

Bait Motel

There is not much inside the Anomaly, but darkness, monsters and the Motel. It was one of the first places on earth where the Anomaly appeared, a small waterside Motel disappeared with it. The Bait Motel.

Since then, everyone who got sent over found themselves in this place. The only safe place after dark, but it needs energy to keep you alive.

Tools and Upgrades

Use your Manipulator to grab or throw items, upgrade your heat camera to see further and more, upgrade the boat with basic defenses to survive longer!

The Scraps and Trash

The Anomaly appears everywhere on earth and it takes everything with it. Researchers also throw in items to experiment. The Anomaly takes it and the items appear inside. Which you can collect to scrape by. Collect it with your boat and if you make it to the next place in time, you can spend it on upgrades.

No time left

You have only a limited amount of time before the next Motel disappears and your chances with it. Hurry but be aware...

Monsters in the Dark

You are not alone. Keep an eye on things. Or not if that is what it takes.
