About the Game

The Door Factory is a first-person horror game where you work as an inspector in a strange factory where doors arrive one by one.

Each door leads to a different place. Your job is to bring the door in, step inside, carefully inspect the room, and decide if everything looks normal. If the area seems safe, you can approve the door for production. If something feels wrong, you must report it.

The gameplay is built around observation, tension, and decision-making. Some rooms may look normal at first glance, but small details can reveal that something is wrong. Objects out of place, strange presences, subtle changes, or impossible situations can turn a routine inspection into something far more disturbing.

Every decision matters: approving a defective door can have consequences, but reporting a safe one can also hurt your performance.
