About the Game

GAME OVERVIEW

Explore the hallways of a strange university where nothing is like it seems. Uncover its secrets and solve all kinds of puzzles to find your brother. The unknown lurks behind every corner.

FIND CLUES

Cross through the different faculties, like the extravagant art faculty or the dreamlike planetarium, making use of the lens to reveal objects from an alternate world that will help you find your way.

FIGHT MONSTERS

Gear up with an old nail gun, stock up on ammo, and defend yourself from the monsters lurking in the dark. Be cautious, once you get deeper in the university, the more dangerous the monsters you encounter will be. You never know what hides behind a locked door...

FIND YOUR BROTHER

As darkness wraps around you, reality will tear slowly, leaving you with both fear and hope as your only companions. Gather your courage and discover if the rumours were true before its too late. Only remember that whoever steps in the dark must pay the price for each step... And not everyone makes it back.
