About the Game

A FATHER'S GREATEST TEST

Can an ordinary farewell turn into a father's worst nightmare? When you put your daughter on the plane, you couldn't have imagined it would be not an end, but a dark beginning. Your world crumbles when the "Plane Crash" news appears on the television screen, only to learn that the crash occurred on a mysterious island, hard to find even on maps.

You are determined to go alone to that island, which official rescue teams dare not go to, and about which chilling legends are told, in order to get your daughter back. All you have is a flashlight, a camera, and unwavering hope.

Can you pull your daughter out of that darkness? Or will the island swallow you too?

Gameplay & Core Features:

  • Limited Light & Battery Management: Your flashlight is your only ally in the dark corridors. But be careful; your battery can run out at any moment. You must scavenge for batteries to survive the shadows.

  • Survival Struggle: You are not alone on the island. Stay alert against lethal creatures. Find medical supplies to heal your wounds and manage your health to stay alive.

  • Eight Magic Keys: To uncover the secrets behind the locked doors, you must locate 8 mystical keys hidden across the island.

  • Power & Generator System: When you encounter obstacles blocking your path, you'll need to restore power by finding the necessary fuel and activating mechanisms within the environment.

  • Camera & Zoom System: Utilize your camera to scrutinize environmental clues or spot hidden details in the shadows. With zoom-in and zoom-out functionality, you won't miss even the smallest piece of evidence.

  • Atmospheric Horror & Surprises: Experience the chilling atmosphere of Büyükada with unpredictable jump scares and special animations designed to keep you on the edge of your seat.
