About the Game

Mouthwashing is a first-person horror game following the dying crew of a shipwrecked space freighter.


Who could have known what good ol’ Captain Curly was capable of? Guess he thought his crew dying alongside him was only right. But some men can’t even kill themselves properly. Maimed, limbless and unable to speak, but alive, Curly is now at the mercy of the crew he has doomed to a slow death.

Descend into Madness

Follow the lives of the crew as they weather starvation, isolation, and each other. People were never your strong suit anyway.

Zero Chance of Rescue

The ship will run out of power within six months. Food rations long before that.

Immersive Storytelling

Pay attention to your surroundings.

Psychological Scares

Your eyes are lying.

Unforgiving Narrative

Hope to die, or for goodness sake, pray that everyone else did.
