About the Game

THE STORY

Eve has been suffering from long-term sleep problems, an inability to establish order in her life, psychological exhaustion, and recurring nightmares. Despite all the help and treatments she has received, she has not been able to overcome these issues, and as a last resort, she decides to undergo a strong medication treatment from her doctor, Dr. Isaac.

The pills given by Dr. Isaac will directly place Eve into the REM stage of sleep and keep her unconscious for hours. The only way for Eve to escape her nightmares is to confront them. After falling asleep, Eve finds herself inside a different-dimensional version of her own home.

Realizing that no matter where she goes, she is trapped in an endless loop, Eve understands that the only way out is to find the anomalies in her house, survive them, and make the correct decisions. If Eve manages to make a series of correct choices without a single mistake, she will escape the loop… or so she thinks.

STUCK IN A LOOP WITH ANOMALIES

Eve has no chance but to face her nightmares and make the right decisions to break the loop.

Find the anomalies such as missing objects, extra objects, changed objects, entities, extraordinary events.

Making the right decision doesn't always mean there are anomalies. Every loop has its own chance to spawn or not spawn anomalies. Keep your eyes open to notice the differences.

SURVIVE THE ENTITIES

You are not always alone and you'll never be. Survive the entities that are trying to kill you during your loop.

You can make some entities lose your track by hiding. But not all of them are going to give you that chance.

CHOOSE YOUR CHALLENGE

INKUBO comes with 3 different difficulty levels.

EASY

NORMAL

HARD

Every difficulty level has its own terms. Pick the one that suits you and break the loop.
