The Anomaly Inspector

You're an Anomaly Inspector working the night shift at a remote facility. Walk through each area, report what's wrong at the terminal—or report that everything is clear. But as the night progresses, the anomalies become harder to ignore. Can you survive until morning?

About the Game

You are an Anomaly Inspector working the night shift.

Your job is simple: walk through each area, inspect for irregularities, and report your findings. CLEAR means everything is normal. ANOMALY means something has changed.

But as the night progresses, the changes become more unsettling.

THE JOB

Objects appear where they shouldn't be. Rooms feel subtly wrong. Sounds echo from empty hallways.

Every decision matters.

FEATURES

  • 48 Unique Anomalies - More in the works!

  • 35 Progressive Levels - More to come!

  • Showpiece Events

  • Professional Voice Acting 

  • Atmospheric Environments 

  • 2-3 Hour Experience

MATURE CONTENT

Psychological horror with implied violence, disturbing themes, and mild jump scares. Not recommended for players sensitive to these elements.

FROM THE DEVELOPER

The Anomaly Inspector is my first commercial game, developed solo as a love letter to atmospheric horror that trusts player intelligence.

Thank you for supporting indie horror.

- Argaze

Can you complete your shift? Or will you become part of the facility's dark history?
