About the Game

Investigate a series of brutal crimes in a remote Arctic town in this psychological horror experience steeped in oppressive atmosphere. Step into the shoes of Detective James Northland and confront the terrifying beast threatening to shatter your sanity in this unsettling tale of mystery.

Venture into a frozen, isolated setting where reason fades with the storm in Echoes in the Storm, an intense psychological horror game from DEAD BLUE SCREEN.

You’ll be drawn into a chilling investigation following a string of gruesome murders that have shattered the town’s fragile peace. As James digs deeper, the line between reality and nightmare begins to blur, uncovering dark secrets and confronting the ghosts of his own mind.


Visit a variety of locations—including the police station, the morgue, and the town’s lighthouse—where you’ll gather crucial evidence to uncover the truth behind what happened. Interact with objects in the environment, listen to radio broadcasts, collect photographs, and read documents to piece together the origin of the horrific beast responsible for the murders.
