About the Game

Your handheld game is the only thing keeping you calm... but something feels wrong. The game seems to know you, its world mirrors your own. And as you play, something begins to move in your room. 

You are not alone.

The only way to survive is to keep playing.
Finish the levels of your turn-based game by fighting enemies and solving puzzles, but stay focused.

Look away for too long, and you might miss something you shouldn't.

At night, your room doesn't feel like yours anymore.
Observe and listen to what is taking place in your chamber. Pay attention to details and focus your gaze on what seems out of place.

Overcoming your fears will not be child's play.

Isn't the game you're playing more than that? Through its characters and events, it reflects a story you're trying to forget. Some actions even have an impact on reality, changing your odds of survival in your chamber.

It must be a coincidence... right?

  • 1 - 2 hour psychological horror experience

  • Unique dual gameplay: balance between the game and surviving in a room that's never safe

  • Unpredictable events that keep you on edge, never letting the fear fade
