Designer's Comment:


As an indie game designer, creating this game has been a deeply personal and rewarding journey. The idea for this game was inspired by classic thriller movies which captivated me with their intense atmospheres and intricate plot twists. One of the most memorable moments during development was designing the sequential escape rooms. Each room had to be unique, challenging, and seamlessly integrated into the story. I spent countless nights perfecting the mechanics to ensure that players would feel a true sense of accomplishment with every puzzle solved. I hope you enjoy playing this game as much as I enjoyed creating it. Thank you for your support, and happy gaming!
