I got a job as a night guard. They promise to pay a lot, but for my own safety I have to follow strange rules.
As you progress, you'll have to find keys and open locked rooms. A first-person game with elements of horror. Explore the hospital and its rooms, collect batteries for your flashlight. The darkness can conceal various mysteries. Try to endure this shift.
Hi, my name is Chris. I've been looking for a job for a long time and have looked at the huge number of jobs on offer. The ad looked like this. Night security guard required. Pay $80 a night, experience, not required. A bit of information I agree, but pretty tempting for me at the time. I sent my resume in immediately after reading it, afraid the employer would choose another candidate. Surprisingly, not even two hours after submitting my application, I received a reply that they had hired me and I could start tonight. Which struck me as very strange and I needed to start working that same evening, but that was just the beginning. I was immensely happy to finally get the job. I went to the address listed at 8pm and it turned out to be an old office building. I went in and immediately noticed that it was pitch black inside and the only source of light was through the glass panel in the door, which said security room.
