10 itemsAbout the Game
It all begins with a cold call at 2:00 AM.
Your friend, Levan, insists that you meet him at a new shawarma spot he found recently. You leave the safety of your apartment. You step into the cool, damp night.Beso's Shawarma is a short, first-person narrative experience. It's not a story about saving the world; it is a story about a single, bad night. Drawn in a low-fidelity PSX style, the game takes you on a linear journey through a fever-dream interpretation of Georgia's capital. From the claustrophobic concrete of a Soviet stairwell to streets that feel unnervingly wrong after dark.
The city is empty, but you are not alone. Strange figures linger in the dark. Some want to talk. Some want to warn you. Others just want you to move out of the way. Every interaction leaves something behind.
The Experience
- A short, first-person narrative horror experience focused on atmosphere, dialogue, and unease rather than combat.
- Encounter strangers whose conversations subtly affect the tone, soundscape, and perception of the world.
- Presented in a deliberately low-fidelity, PSX-inspired visual style with floating 3D text dialogue and minimal UI.
- A playthrough should take twenty-five minutes (give or take), with more to discover through alternative endings.
