About the Game

You're not good enough... it can't be done... it's too risky... you're worthless... give up...
The Dreadful Whispers is an adventure about overcoming fear and doubt.




  • Explore hundreds of strange handcrafted levels filled with doubts, fears and whispers.

  • Discover a darker, twisted side to the world with the unique reveal mechanic.

  • Solve dozens of short, mind twisting puzzles and blast your way through horrifying monsters that embody doubt, fear and the all consuming agony that is regret.



  • Uncover dozens of secrets and easter eggs.

  • Experience diverse levels and drastically different endings based on your choices.

  • Enjoy haunting, beautiful music by the talented Dave Allen.



Everything from the strange artwork and animations to the programming, design and sound effects is the work of a single developer.
A piece of me, Noa Calice, is in this game. You're not only immersing yourself in a unique, weird world but also supporting my dream.
