About the Game

SANITY is a first-person psychological horror experience that will make you question everything. Blending non-linear storytelling with player-driven choices, SANITY challenges you to question not only the world around you…but your own perception of it.

You play as Kaelon Synclair, a globally recognized entertainer whose decade-long career has earned him multiple CROWNs and numerous prestigious industry awards. Your wife, Hisako Ito-Synclair, is the brilliant founder of ITo Technologies and creator of TETHER™, a groundbreaking platform that transformed modern evidence collection, witness management, and criminal investigations worldwide. Your son, Joshua Synclair, has recently started Kindergarten and is doing exceptionally well.

The perfect life it would seem.

Tragedy, though, knows no bounds...
