About the Game

PLAY-TO-LIVE

In DebtDesperateLooking for quick cash. That's when you were invited to a game that promises everything, enough money to solve all of your problems, a way out for those who need it... MALCADE. Play arcade machines and win money, it's simple right?

NEON DRENCHED HORROR

You’ve been locked in a dingy multi-floor arcade-themed complex by someone using you for entertainment. How do you survive? By beating the arcade games scattered around the facility, managing your tickets, winning prize stamps, and using them to unlock a path forward. Keep moving. Keep playing. The longer you stay, the harder it gets to exit as you were. Something’s in here with you... and it doesn’t want you to leave. It's been hungry for far too long.

ESCAPE OR BE CONSUMED

MALCADE is a short but re-playable game designed to feel like an interactive horror b-movie. Find yourself thrown into a curated game of death, a game filled with organic machinery, an industrial complex twisted into a forced arcade visage, and surreal retro horror as your desperate attempt to win big and turn your life around turns into a nightmare.

ENDLESS HORROR

In addition to the standard MALCADE gamemode, there's also an ENDLESS mode which will let you test your skills in an attempt to make it as far down as possible. A truly randomized elevator ride to hell.
