11 itemsAbout the Game
Watch over the newborns, inspect their rooms, and try to notice anything unusual. Sometimes IT is obvious. Sometimes it is silent, hidden, and patient. By the end of each shift, you must make a decision - turn off the lights or initiate the sterilization and cleansing of the room.
If you turn off the lights and overlook the horrific events happening in this hospital, one newborn will be taken. If you initiate sterilization and cleansing when everything is calm and normal, management will take action - and you will soon be fired.
Do not let this happen. You are the only one who knows that something truly terrible is happening here, and only you can stop this mad, ravenously hungry EVIL.
Swaddle is a short but highly intense first-person horror game that terrifies through its atmosphere - and much more. What should you be afraid of? The shadows? The light? Or the monster hiding behind one of the newborns’ cribs?
Or maybe… tonight is the calmest night of all?
Explore your surroundings and do not give in to panic - a single wrong decision may prevent you from saving the helpless babies.

A bleak atmosphere - an ordinary hospital at first glance, but you know for sure that something is here.
