About the Game

"Thick fog crept slowly across the marshes along Highway 285 in New Mexico, occasionally revealing the strangely orange reflection of the moon."

Washing dishes, cleaning, and carrying boxes to the basement. None of it seems to be a difficult task. Of course, solitary work at night isn't for everyone, but what could go wrong?

"The jukebox fell silent, and I shivered. I realized that the music was masking the strange scratching coming from the basement."

Take a shift in the night of the bloody moon and find out what it means to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. Follow the mysterious rules to survive until dawn and feel the breath of lurking evil on your own skin. 

Key Features:

  • First-Person Interactive Gameplay

  • Survival Mechanics

  • Engaging Storyline

  • Restaurant Work Simulator (e.g., cleaning, operating the dishwasher, taking out the trash)

  • Immersive Atmosphere

  • Puzzle-solving Mechanics

  • Money-Earning Mechanics

Crafted from a passion for creepypastas and classic horror movies.

"Those list creepypastas are so popular, and they really do make for great game mechanics. I'm surprised this is the first horror game based on the list concept!"
