About the Game

School Anomaly is a short walking-simulator horror experience set in a Japanese school corridor, inspired by Exit 8.

You arrive at school like any other day, but something feels off. No matter how far you walk, you can’t leave the corridor. The school has changed—and now you must find a way out.

Pay close attention to every detail around you.

If you spot something strange, take the stairs up.

If everything looks normal, head down the stairs on the other side.

Face a series of unsettling and ever-changing hallways.

Can you escape, or will you be trapped forever?
