7 itemsAbout the Game
Without realizing what is happening, a prisoner wakes up in a prison cell and finds himself in a dark labyrinth of corridors and rooms inhabited by mysterious and terrifying creatures that lurk around every corner.
Every step the prisoner takes is met with an unsettling silence, and every sound echoes ominously, leaving him in a state of constant uncertainty and fear.
To survive and escape this dangerous environment, the prisoner must carefully search for necessities, tools, and even weapons that may offer a glimmer of hope or at least prolong the desperate struggle for survival.
Will you manage to find a way out in this maze or will you become another victim in this nightmare?
Aside from the dangerous creatures that may be waiting for you around every corner. Dark, cramped spaces where it's easy to get lost instill a fear that will keep you from keeping your sanity to get out of the place.
Will you be able to reconstruct the story of events by exploring locations and studying rare messages from those who were at the center of the incident?
