Story
Welcome to the ER, where the patients wake up with missing body parts. Your memory is a bit foggy because of the terrible accident. Lucky for you, our doctor has a wonder drug that will make you heal in no time. So, do as we say and stop wondering why there are never any visitors.
You must unravel the dark secrets behind why patients are dying of strange diseases and how you lost your arms. It’s your only chance to ever leave this ER alive. But, solving secrets, and surviving supernatural and human beasts is not an easy task when you are armless. Be prepared to use your wits, hide and run.
The origins of The ER: Patient Typhon
Originally, it all started with two researchers, who made a little horror game as part of a research project. This game was The ER, which became the number one game on the gaming site, itch(.)io. Inspired by the enthusiastic feedback that the game got, the two researchers got motivated to turn this small experiment into a fully fleshed out nightmare.
