About the Game

The Sinkhole is a first-person psychological horror game where you discover a massive sinkhole during a cave exploration after crawling through a narrow gap in the rocks. The deeper you go, the more unsettling the place becomes. Something feels wrong. As you explore the dark underground system, climb through dangerous cave formations, and descend further into the unknown, an ENTITY eventually reveals itself.

This game uses your webcam as a core gameplay mechanic. Instead of using a mouse to look around, your real head movements control the player’s view. You can also use your actual hands to climb, grab, and interact with objects for a fully immersive experience.

Features:

  • Webcam-based gameplay mechanics

  • 3D surround sound

  • Immersive and unique first-person experience

  • Dark and ominous atmosphere
