GAMEPLAY

You wake up alone in a dark forest with only a flickering flashlight and a voice on the phone that insists it’s your friend. Explore twisted streets, hide from unseen creatures, and follow (or ignore) the voice guiding you through the dark. Every step you take draws you closer to uncovering what the callers goal really is.

Key Features

  • Run and hide: Escape monsters that stalk you through dimly lit environments.

  • Unreliable light: Your only tool is a flashlight that flickers, fails, and leaves you guessing what’s in the dark.

  • Caller: A mysterious friend guides you, comforting, sarcastic, and familiar. Find him and escape this place together,

  • Branching responses: Listen, disobey, or challenge the caller to reveal different reactions and story details.

  • Atmospheric horror: Focus on dread and suspense rather than jump scares.
