About the Game

Dark Compass is a multi-chapter psychological horror game centered around exploration.

You will experience interconnected yet standalone journeys, delving into fear, choice, and obsession on the threshold between life and death.

The once-open path constricts around you.

Not like a winding subterranean labyrinth —

It is only a narrow, irreversible passage hewn into stone.

As your oxygen diminishes, so does your resolve.

Just as despair threatens to overwhelm,

Hope emerges.

Dice scatter across the table.

You are isolated and desperate, attempting to contact with a voice that may no longer exist.

Driven deeper into madness, you obediently pursue a conversation that may never have truly begun.

When casting dice becomes obsession, can you still be certain who—or what—you are speaking with?

Follow the compass needle forward. Some doors will open for you.
