About the Game



The most diabolical killer from smartphones is now on Steam. You have 5 days to survive and escape from the lair of this horrifying kidnapper with a horse's head. But don't think it will be easy. HeadHorse is a highly intelligent assassin with an unparalleled thirst for blood, and he is tracking your every move. No place is safe in this game, and at any moment you can be caught by HeadHorse or his dog, Grinder. Solve puzzles to escape and survive in a dark and terrifying scenario.


Try to escape from HeadHorse and Grinder in the liminal world of the Backrooms. Solve puzzles to open the door and escape, but it won't be easy. The scenario of HeadHorse in the Backrooms is challenging, and you will need to create strategies to succeed.


The game offers 6 difficulty levels, ranging from Ghost, which is the easiest where the player is not seen by the enemy, to Madness mode, where escaping is nearly impossible. Play and put yourself to the test. Will you be able to escape?


In addition to the default skin, you can play with 6 skins from alternative universes:

HeadHorse Animatronic: Rumor has it that he is an animatronic toy in a themed restaurant, and one day, after a short circuit, he killed several children during a birthday party.

Jason HeadHorse: A cunning killer who would eliminate anyone who approached his lair.

HeadHorse Nemesis: A bloodthirsty monster who hunted down survivors during a zombie apocalypse.

HeadHorse Dr. Salvador: Straight from the distant villages of Spain, this assassin will dismember you using his chainsaw.

Pyramid HeadHorse: From the depths of a macabre universe, he is one of the guardians, punishing all who end up there for their sins with his enormous blade.

HeadHorse Sushiman: He only wanted to be a sushi chef, but after criminals destroyed his restaurant, he swore revenge against all who ruined his dreams.
