6 itemsAbout the Game
Nightmare Visions: Chapter 1 is not a traditional horror game.
There are no save files.
No skip buttons.
This is a narrative horror experience, not a survival challenge.
You’re not here to escape. You’re here to witness.
Developed entirely by one person, not a team, in 1 Month as a Challenge.
If you're expecting a AAA horror game, you’re in the wrong place.
