About the Game

Move through the rooms of the lab in this short but replayable horror game. Debug the computers in each room, watch out for errors, and fix sabotages. Make sure you always know where you are... and where other things are. Hey, you can also play sounds in different rooms! Why would they add that feature? There is nothing in that room...

STORY


The MANF lab has just made a groundbreaking discovery in biology! You don't care, of course, you get paid the same as before. Not much. Your job is easy though, each night you come back to the lab and make sure all the computers work just fine. Easy, right?
But things have changed these days. You start hearing sounds, and you start to worry. You heard some guys talking about a security breach... But hey! They added a cool feature where you can play sounds in rooms! So much fun!

GAMEPLAY


Move through rooms while fixing the computers and make sure you know exactly where everything is at all times. Watch out for sabotages that demand you to fix them immediately, and stay put to concentrate and hear where specific sounds come from. Your contract runs out in just a few days, you aren't going to leave now, are you?

FEATURES


  • Minimalist gameplay, with few movement options
  • Computers that you need to check and debug to make sure everything is ok
  • Ability to lure living things away by making sounds in different rooms
  • Sabotages that you must go and deal with immediately
  • Short game, but infinitely replayable
