About the Game

In Bonds, you must use your wit to survive! Free yourself and solve a series of dangerous puzzles leading you toward a promised liberation. You begin unconscious and tied to a chair, and things quickly get worse from there.

Bonds is an immersive, difficult escape room with a non-linear narrative. Explore your surroundings, discover useful items, uncover clues, and most importantly, find a way out! Play as twelve different victims with a variety of individual strengths, who have been captured and placed one-by-one in a madman's cryptic experiment. Explore their stories as they struggle to survive, and learn more about WHY.

Controls are learned.
Progress is earned.
Failure is death.


Some elements are randomized, so guessing results in little long-term reward. You must strive for understanding in order to demonstrate your worth.

Headphones are recommended.
