About the Game

Welcome to the Ministry for Anomaly Observation.

You are a contracted observer assigned to monitor classified subjects through the Ministry's CCTV network.

  • Monitor CCTV feeds across multiple investigation cases

  • Detect and report anomalous changes in subject behaviour or environment

  • Maintain case integrity through accurate observation

  • Recover corrupted investigation records by completing full anomaly detection

  • Revisit and restore compromised cases by eliminating corruption states

Identify anomalies. Report deviations. Maintain observation integrity.

Missed anomalies will not end an investigation - they will corrupt it.

Corrupted observations may degrade evidence quality and distort archival records until properly resolved.

Investigate four unique Ministry cases involving unstable subjects, impossible events, and escalating reality distortions.

Experience slow-burn anomaly horror through stylized low-resolution surveillance feeds inspired by retro graphics with a modern touch.

Remain observant.

The Ministry does not tolerate inaccuracies.
