About the Game

Date Due is a first-person horror game where you play as a librarian managing a local library. Hired quickly due to a severe labor shortage, your job is to handle daily tasks and assist readers. You heard the creepy rumors about the library before taking the position, but you dismissed them as urban legends—until the hauntings actually begin. With no way to escape, you must survive your shift while investigating the building. Search, gather hidden clues, and uncover the mystery behind the entity hunting you.
