You are trapped in an endless underground passageway.
Observe your surroundings carefully to reach "The Exit 8".
Don't overlook any anomalies.
If you find anomalies, turn back immediately.
If you don't find anomalies, do not turn back.
To go out from Exit 8.
The Exit 8 is a short walking simulator inspired by Japanese underground passageways, liminal spaces and back rooms.
The game is only available in Japanese and English, but if you understand the above description of the anomaly, you can probably play it all the way through.
If you are easily intoxicated, changing the following settings may help.
【Camera shake】
The camera shakes when you walk or run, but if you set the value to 0.0, the camera will not shake.
【Camera Acceleration】
If you set the maximum value to 30.0, the camera will move without delay.
【Camera Sensitivity】
If the sensitivity is high, the camera will move significantly when the mouse is moved.
Adjust the value if you find it difficult to operate the camera with the default value of 1.
【Motion Blur】
Afterimages will appear when the camera is moved. Recommended to disable at 30FPS
【Preset】
Set the overall graphic settings.
If you do not have sufficient specs, it is better to set it to "Low" to avoid sickness.
