1v4 First-Person Asymmetric Hunt
Hunt as a hunter and complete the final ritual - or hunt as the monster and break the team before the ritual is done.
Sound & Tension
Every sound is a signal. Footsteps, doors, and moving props reveal you and spark panic when silence matters most.

Investigation, Ritual, Kill
Survive by solving the hunt. Identify the creature’s weakness, gather required tools, and complete the final ritual before the hunter becomes the hunted.

Play the Monster
You’re not just chasing you're controlling the pace. Stalk, separate the team, deny objectives, and strike before hunters commit the ritual.

Procedural Horror Locations
Explore a different nightmare every match. Mansions, forests, and tombs shift their layout, routes, and hiding spots forcing hunters to adapt and keeping the monster’s moves unpredictable.

Interactive Tools & Props
Use the environment to win. Barricade, distract, lure, improvise and turn objects into survival tactics or tools for the ritual.
