About the Game

Story

The main character you will play is named Eric.
Eric wakes up in an unknown cellar on a mattress right next to a large black stain on the wall.



In the cellar, he finds only an old VHS camera that constantly shows the time as 3:44:59/60 and an empty journal. After a while, the black stain speaks to Eric and offers him a key that would get him out of the cellar. However, in exchange, the stain wants Eric to enter a cave and find a hand.

Journal

Eric will record his thoughts, feelings, and also tasks he plans to do in the journal. The journal is narrated, and if you wish, Eric will read each entry for you.
