About the Game

SALUTATIONS VISITOR


WELCOME TO THE SEWERS! IT IS ALSO KNOWN AS THE SEWAGE SYSTEM! ONE OF THE MOST INTERESTING AND UNKNOWN PLACES OF THE CITY. DON’T WORRY, IT ISN’T DANGEROUS. AND IT MAY SMELL DOWN THERE A BIT BUT IT'S ALL BECAUSE OF THE WASTE FROM OUR BODIES AND OTHER STUFF OF THE SORT. THERE ARE SOMETIMES RODENTS KEPT DOWN THERE. THERE CAN EVEN BE FISH IN THE SEWERS. AND REMEMBER THERE IS NOTHING TO BE AFRAID OF. HOPEFULLY, WE WILL SEE YOU COMING ON DOWN TO THE SEWERS.



EXPLANATION


The Sewers is a retro horror game taking place in the underground tunnels of the cities as a poverty-stricken civilian of this world, you need to desert your sanctuary to find a better home. Don't lose sight of the walls around you, and never forget why you left the world above. You are armed with a cheap flashlight and a pair of legs that don't like to run for too long. As quiet as the sewage system could get, you must remember that you aren't alone and have never been before.
