About the Game

"Tragic Illusion: Dancer Clara Dead After On-Stage Stabbing During Live Performance. The head magician, Albert, remains hospitalized with severe head trauma. Witnesses report the prop knife had been swapped for a real blade..."


You are Albert. You don't remember who that is. You don't remember the woman in the photograph, even though someone has scratched out her eyes with a pin. You don't remember the circus, the stage, or why your hands won't stop shaking. But when you close your eyes, you see a knife and you feel something worse than guilt. You feel relief.

Wander through corridors that stretch and loop the moment you look away. The rooms behind you are not the rooms you left. Pick up old photographs, torn letters, and ruined props turn them over in your hands, inspect every angle, every scribbled note. The answer to what happened during "The Final Show" is here, buried in the debris of a mind that doesn't want to remember. Or can't. Or won't.

You are not alone. Someone is watching from the rafters. He saw what you did, and he hasn't forgiven you.

Walk softly. The floor is littered with traps, step on the wrong thing and every sound you make becomes a beacon. Breathe quietly. Run too long and your gasps will betray you before your footsteps do. Don't look up. When the sandbag falls, you won't hear it coming.

A first-person psychological horror experience. Approximately 1 hour of gameplay. An original ambient soundtrack with reactive audio.

THE SHOW NEVER ENDED
