About the Game

October 14, 1998.

You are one of the few kids in the neighborhood selected to play the brand new game just released — along with a mysterious letter, waiting to make contact with you tonight.

Don't get caught

You're NOT allowed to be caught awake. Pretend to sleep and turn off the lights before your father checks on you.

One mistake and the night ends differently than you'd like.

A computer from another time

Browse a interactive 1998 desktop — surf the web, chat on Messenger and uncover a conspiracy that goes far beyond your bedroom walls.

Someone is watching

Not every threat tonight comes from inside the house. Stay alert. Be aware of your surroundings.

Made by one person

Meerk Hunt is my first finished project — a small horror experience built solo over a few months, inspired by the horror games and internet culture of the late 90s.

If you enjoy it, leaving a review means more than you know.
