About the Game

You find yourself trapped in a mysterious communal apartment filled with an eerie and unsettling atmosphere. There's no way out, and your only option is an old elevator with two buttons.

The Challenge

Walk down the corridor and press the elevator's red button if you notice an anomaly—something that shouldn’t be there. Press the green button if everything seems normal. Your decisions will determine the outcome:

  • Correct answers bring you closer to the exit.

  • Mistakes send you back to the beginning.

Gameplay

  • Exploration and Observation: Carefully examine the corridor and your surroundings. Anomalies can be hidden anywhere within the corridor.

  • Decision-Making: Test your attentiveness and intuition.

  • Replayability: Each playthrough surprises you with new combinations of anomalies and challenges. The game features around 30 unique anomalies that won't repeat in a single cycle.

Game Features

  • Realistic Graphics: Stunning visuals create an atmosphere that is truly immersive and haunting.

  • Authentic Ambiance: Experience the spirit of an old communal apartment filled with mysteries.

Discover strange and sometimes humorous anomalies:

  • Dynamic Anomalies: A blend of bizarre, funny, and truly creepy phenomena awaits you.

A severed head in a pot isn’t the scariest thing you might encounter:

  • A Charming Cat: This fluffy companion might be more than meets the eye.

Can You Escape?

Or will you remain trapped in an endless cycle of wrong decisions? It all depends on your attention to detail and intuition.
