About the Game

Nesche has fallen into the hands of demons and been dragged into a dark dungeon.

Will she be able to escape where merciless demons roam?

The monsters are cunning and will track you by sound.

Hide, distract them, fight back — or pretend to be captured to deceive them.

Exploration & Survival

Explore a dangerous dungeon filled with patrols, traps, and hidden paths.

Collect items, create sound distractions, and search for keys to progress.

Every mistake can lead to capture. Fight your enemies or evade them as you search for a way out.

Intelligent & Reactive Monsters

Monsters roam the dungeon, and players can hear their presence through echoing footsteps.

But sound works both ways.

Demons can also hear the player's footsteps and actions.

Enemies act in a lifelike and reactive way, thinking and speaking.

The game features more than 15 monsters, each with its own adult event scene.

Allied NPCs

Like Nesche, allied NPCs are also trying to escape the dungeon.

Enemies may capture any character they encounter.
