About the Game

Silent Stay

Dive into the unsettling world of Silent Stay, a narrative horror game with psychological elements.

You step into the role of Alex Miller, a writer who has rented a remote cabin in the woods to finally finish his book. The cabin seems perfect: far from the city, no neighbors, just you and your thoughts. But after just a few days, strange events begin to accumulate that make you question your sanity.

Experience Alex's Story
You experience the events in the cabin live from Alex's perspective as the strange and increasingly disturbing incidents unfold before your eyes. The story is rich with subtle clues and shocking twists, complemented by mysterious notes, eerie sounds, and other details that Alex discovers in real-time.

Atmospheric Horror

  • Psychological Tension: A growing sense of unease created by inexplicable events and a dark, oppressive atmosphere.

  • Mix of Subtle and Intense: Horror elements range from creeping discomfort to sudden shocks, maintaining constant tension.

Your Writing Time Becomes a Nightmare

  • Interactive Gameplay: Write, explore the cabin and more – until nothing seems normal anymore.

  • Carefully Crafted Horror: Every event is precisely designed to draw you deeper into the dark narrative.

  • No Enemies, Only Fear: There's no classic monster chasing you. The threat is subtle, psychological, and omnipresent.
