About the Game

You play as a reporter following a tip about strange activity at a residential property. What begins as a routine investigation escalates into a big story when you discover a hidden laboratory beneath the house. The only way to escape is to follow the clues in the lab, but be careful...you may not be alone.

This VR escape‑room thriller focuses on exploration, environmental storytelling, and hands‑on puzzle solving. Search the lab for clues, gather evidence with your camera, and uncover what the scientist was hiding. Use your headlight to navigate the darkness and stay alert.
