About the Game


You wake up in complete darkness. You are alone and can not move. You feel around and can grab your phone. It is low battery but you turn on the flashlight anyway. All you can see is wooden planks in all directions. You have been buried alive and now you need to find a way out. You are running low on oxygen and your battery is running out, you do not have much time. Will you escape, or is this your final resting place?



  • This is a short experience with the expected gameplay around 30 minutes.
  • Search the coffin you are inside to find helpful items, solve puzzles and figure out a way to escape.
  • You will have to balance your battery power, remaining lighter fluid and oxygen to ensure you can survive.
  • You will have to maintain a low stress level or you will begin to panic, rapidly reducing your oxygen levels.
