About the Game

Congratulations! You just landed a new job! A middle-management position in a sprawling corporation. Onboarding seems simple, until you realize your “work” consists entirely of playing a memory game with cards.

Something is wrong. The cards don’t stay the same. Your memory betrays you. Subtle changes creep in…  and each mistake draws a silent, patient monster closer. The office that promised stability now feels like a trap, and you begin to question your own sanity.

Survive the week. Collect your pay check and leave the job. If you don’t lose your mind first.

Experience a tense, oppressive horror, all set inside a windowless office. Nothing is as ordinary as it seems.

The flavor is intentional. Please do not question its benefits.

Play a classic memory game…

…with a deadly twist. Cards shift, subtle changes appear, and every mistake has consequences.

Not everything you need to worry about is on the desk.

Pay attention to what you can’t see, and use your flashlight to hold back whatever is waiting behind you.
