About the Game

Fire Lookout: Abandoned Post is a first-person narrative-driven mystery game.

As a newly hired fire lookout stationed deep in Summit Ridge National Park, you spend your days exploring the atmospheric landscape and connecting with colleagues. As you settle in, you can't shake the feeling that something is off.

As you begin to act on that feeling, you start to uncover the truth, but at what cost?

The Gameplay

Throughout the story you will be given clues as to what happened. Players are encouraged to explore, pay attention to details, and try to solve the mystery of what really happened in Summit Ridge National Park.

Key Features

  • Atmospheric environment with a large, interactable world

  • Decision-based progression through radio conversations
