Trapped in Darkness
You find yourself lost in a dense, eerie forest during a heavy rainstorm. In the distance, you see the light of an old, secluded house. Seeking shelter from the storm, you step inside, but quickly realize it’s a trap. A demonic entity has imprisoned you within the house, and the only way forward is through a series of rooms filled with dark secrets and intricate puzzles.
Race Against Time
You have a limited amount of time to solve the puzzles in each room. When all three candles extinguish, death awaits you. This is a test of speed and endurance, where every minute could be crucial.
Combination of Horror and Escape Room Mechanics
Each room contains its unique puzzles that gradually reveal the chilling story of the demonic entity holding you captive.
Key Features:

Escape Room-Style Progression: Navigate a series of rooms, each with its atmosphere, challenges, and fears, as you move closer to freedom.
