About the Game

  • Lucian, on what seemed like an ordinary school day, suddenly finds himself trapped in a deserted, post-apocalyptic world. The once lively corridors of his school are now silent and filled with shadows and unknown dangers. Together with Elora, he must rely on cooperation and determination to survive. Players must use both their intelligence and courage to solve puzzles, unlock doors, and uncover hidden paths.

    With the constant threat of lurking creatures, every step heightens the tension. Staying silent, moving strategically, and avoiding sudden dangers are key to survival. The immersive atmosphere, detailed environments, and impactful sound design create a truly tense horror experience.

    But Lucian and Elora’s journey is not only about escape — as dark secrets and mysterious events unfold, players slowly uncover the truth behind this abandoned world. Every choice, every solution, directly affects their chance of survival. This is not just a horror game; it is a story-driven experience that tests wit, strategy, and bravery.
