About the Game

Can you survive?

El Virus tells the story of Yara, a woman who wakes up in a hospital room, completely alone, in a post-apocalyptic world devastated by a new variant of the COVID-19 virus. Upon waking up, she will be obligated to figure out how to survive in an environment that is full of hostility and unpredictable dangers. Along with surviving, Yara is also concerned about finding her dog, Nala, and her partner, Denki.

Mechanics

El Virus is a single-player, FPS, Survival Horror game, in which you will control the protagonist (Yara) and you will have to put your skills to work to survive the dangers that await her. Sharpen your senses and don't let fear and jump scares cause you to make mistakes. Open your eyes wide and find a way to move forward. There is always a way.

Take care of your resources

You're not a trained agent, so switch between the gun and the flashlight wisely to avoid getting caught. Ammo is not unlimited! There are times when it's essential to end threats, but there are also times when it might be beneficial to not waste it. Maybe there is even a being who is not affected...

Maps

Make it to your goal by progressing through each of the 3 levels, with 4 maps in total. Each level has its own mysteries and stories to tell. Gather all the notes and uncover the happenings in this world filled with horrors. And, above all, be careful when you hear crying.
