11 itemsAbout the Game
Dread: The Cold Case is a first-person psychological horror where a bizarre murder investigation spirals into a desperate fight for survival. Forget the case – your only focus is staying alive.
Master brutal, improvised melee combat. Rip pipes from walls, swing cinderblocks, or scavenge for anything you can turn into a weapon against the relentless horror hunting you. Parry attacks, strike from the shadows – whatever it takes to survive.
Explore chilling, cinematic environments. Use tools like your UV light to solve environmental puzzles and uncover twisted clues. But remember, sometimes surviving the case is more important than solving it.
