About the Game

Fatal Nights is a first-person survival horror mystery set in Burntwood, a quiet rural town in Eastern Oklahoma where the woods are too close, the locals are too careful, and something is very wrong beneath the surface.

You play as Mason, a novice paranormal investigator from Guthrie, Oklahoma, who temporarily moves into a rental house on the edge of town to investigate Burntwood’s strange reports, local haunts, and unexplained activity.

At first, it is the kind of work Mason understands: old houses, local rumors, nervous witnesses, strange sounds in the dark. But when a brutal murder shakes the town and disturbing notes begin appearing under the name “The Wendigo,” Mason’s investigation turns into something far more dangerous.

Explore a small 1990s rural town, speak with guarded locals, search forgotten places, follow physical clues, manage your supplies, and decide how far you are willing to dig when folklore, madness, and reality begin to blur.

The cast

In Burntwood, fear has roots.

The town has its secrets.
The woods have their warnings.
And not every monster is hiding in the dark.
