12 itemsAbout the Game
UNHOST is a psychological horror puzzle where you play as a paranormal detective. For seven nights, an abandoned hospital becomes your workplace. Investigate the mysterious disappearances of those who lost their lives within these walls.
During each night shift, you monitor the building through a surveillance camera system. Your task is to detect anomalies in time: distorted lighting, strange sounds, moving or disappearing objects, and other deviations that are easy to miss. Capture them with a remote-controlled robot before ghosts can reach you.
By day, you analyze collected evidence and images, listen to audio recordings, and move forward in the investigation. Using a custom-built device, you can make contact with the ghosts haunting the hospital. Each of them has its own story.
Your dreams are no longer a respite between shifts. In them, you explore unfamiliar places, solve puzzles and uncover fragments of the past. You begin to realize that by immersing yourself in the tragedies of others, you are slowly approaching your own.
Face anomalies that appear randomly each night.
Undergo psychological tests revealing your fears.
Earn reputation points for every captured anomaly.
Upgrade your remote-controlled robot and surveillance cameras.
Influence the course of events and the story’s ending.
Feel the analog aesthetics of the 1990s in a horror experience built on tension and atmosphere.
