About the Game

Solve the craziest case of your detective career by finding clues, battling zombie-like creatures and hair-raising bosses. Solve mind-challenging puzzles and explore a story of twists and turns. Opt for classic survival horror fixed camera, or over-the-shoulder.

In this heart-pounding horror mystery puzzle game, you'll dive headfirst into a world of horror and intrigue, stepping into the twisted mind of the antagonist using cutting-edge mind-space technology to gather clues and solve puzzles.

Battle creatures and bosses with unique fighting styles that challenge your combat abilities.

As you make your way through the twisted mind, you'll encounter puzzles and challenges that will test your mettle.

Choose between two camera modes to tailor your experience to your playstyle. Want a classic, old-school vibe? Go for Fixed-Cameras mode and feel that nostalgic Resident Evil energy. Or, if you're all about action and thrills, go for Over the Shoulder mode for a more modern perspective.

Are you ready to prove your skills and uncover the twisted secrets within the mind?
