7 itemsAbout the Game
At first you ask yourself, “Where am I? What am I doing here?” But very quickly the only question that bothers you is, “How to get out of here and survive?!” Twisted catacombs of a quite familiar place disorientate you, and darkness together with dreadful findings strike terror.
Who lived here? What curse fell on the lonely father? What happened to his son? Whose dreadful presence you’re constantly feeling? The abandoned building is full of mystical things, riddles and inscriptions that resemble something of Southern Gothic and macabre rituals.
