About the Game

Synopsis

Your world has become a living nightmare. A mysterious, violent disease has torn the country apart. You are one of the few still fighting to survive, pushing towards the border where hope may still remain.

This is a first-person, narrative-driven survival horror experience set in a stylized, rapidly decaying world. Explore desolate spaces, work with survivors, and face bleak horrors as you make your way forward. Every encounter matters, and every decision comes with risk.

Gameplay
