About the Game

Circadial is a psychological horror game about what occurs when nightmares become one with reality.

ENTER THE EXPERIMENT

You play as Jesse Coleman, a 32 year old man who has been plagued by terrible night terrors since he was a child. You have been an insomniac your whole life. However, there may be a cure for you.

You have been chosen to take part in a case study for the newly created Circadial pills, a drug meant to counteract sleep disorders. You only need to make it through three trials to test the effects of the pills.

FACE YOUR FEARS

As you fall asleep at the end of each trial you will encounter new dreams, each more distorted and abnormal than the last.

Explore their nightmarish landscapes to recover memories of your past and locate the real source of your torment.

He waits for you.

The man who stands behind closet doors.
