About the Game

Operator Unknown is an atmospheric analog horror game about memory and control. Otto gets a late call from a coworker and now has to work overtime. Use the IReCORP's neurodive system to access last memories of deceased agents, recover the files and go home. Nothing sketchy at all.



  • Digital Nightmares

    Live through fragmented memories in difficult immersive first-person levels. Survive long enough by relying on your reflexes and wit. Watch every corner of the room you're locked in and listen closely for every whisper.

  • Retro Aesthetic

    We established a very experimental art style, driven by our love for pixelart.

  • Fierce entities

    Each level is unique and has its own gameplay rules and tricks. Encounter a lot of different entities and possibly a few clowns to make things worse.

  • Trust the Corporation

    Follow the instructions of IReCorp, what can go wrong if you obey a mega-neuro-tech corporation?

This is a short game with different unique levels that present challenge.


Note to players: the game is designed to be hard, try each level a few times, adapt to the surrounding danger and act quick to survive. People with ADHD you're welcome...

Warning: Game contains imagery that may be harmful to players with photosensitive epilepsy or similar condition.
