About the Game

  • ABOUT

    The Beast Within is a cooperative horror escape game.

    You are an agent dispatched to a sealed research facility where CGI Corporation once conducted unethical experiments.

    But you are not alone — the test subjects are still there, and they can hear even your breath.

    In this place, sound determines life or death.

    Silence is your only ally.

    Work together to escape… if you can.

  • GAMEPLAY

    🎧 Sound Detection System: The monster reacts to both microphone input and in-game footsteps. Move quietly — or you’ll be hunted.

    🤝 Co-op Escape Flow: Open doors, collect clues, and secure the escape route together.
