CONSCRIPT is a top-down survival horror experience inspired by genre classics—blending strategic resource management, methodical combat, and suffocating atmosphere into a grim, historically grounded nightmare.
The Battle of Verdun, 1916. World War I’s bloodiest conflict rages as the German Army drives deep into France.
Your younger brother has vanished amid the chaos.
Dive into the madness of war. Engage in brutal combat against hostile troops, manage scarce supplies, and solve complex environmental puzzles as you explore collapsed trench lines, infiltrate occupied forts, and cross no man's land in a desperate search for your lost kin.
Can you find the flesh and blood you’ve lost—and ensure a home goes unbroken?
