About the Game

Step into the endless corridors of learning and unease in Through the Chalk Dust — a psychological walking-simulation puzzle inspired by looping-environment horror.

You wander from classroom to classroom, each one almost identical to the last. Almost. Something feels off. When you sense an anomaly, pull the switch on the wall to reset the world and move forward. Fail to notice one… and you may never leave.

Use your tablet to capture and compare photos of each room you pass.

Features

  • Explore looping, atmospheric classrooms steeped in analog dread

  • Use an in-game camera and tablet to spot differences and document your journey

  • A tense, minimalist experience with no combat and growing psychological pressure

  • Test your memory, perception, and patience — how long can you keep your mind clear in the chalk dust?
