About the Game

There is something outside, banging on the walls.
June 25th, 1983, this is when it began.




Something stirs in the backwoods of Montana.
It starts slowly, almost unnoticeable against the sounds of the wilderness.
But one night, there can be no doubt:

Something is outside, trying to get in.

Explore the woods, brave the darkness, find your dog.

A short 5-10 minute horror game with stylized graphics.

Features 2 endings.
