About the Game

Shadows Show is a classic atmospheric first-person horror game.

You are a budding blogger who has decided to leave the office routine behind and shoot your first video in an abandoned sanatorium called “Red Forest”. What was supposed to be just a scary adventure for content turns into a grim story that doesn’t let the living go.

One evening in mid-spring, everything was business as usual: ordinary patients, routine procedures. But closer to midnight, a strange feeling of unease swept through the hospital. A nurse noticed that one of the patients, a middle‑aged man, was acting strangely. He sat on the edge of his bed, staring out the window, whispering: “They are coming… They are already here.” The next morning the hospital was empty. All the patients and staff had vanished. Years later, the protagonist decides to find out what really happened.

Part of the story is revealed through notes you find – each one brings you closer to the answer.
