About the Game

Vanaden is a first-person horror survival game set in a cursed, fortress-like labyrinth. Trapped inside, you must explore dark corridors, hidden chambers, and dangerous pathways while searching for a way to escape.

Survival is about stealth, observation, and strategy rather than combat. The labyrinth is filled with hostile monsters that patrol the halls and react to sound and movement. Avoid detection, learn enemy patterns, and use the environment to your advantage.

To progress, activate ancient altars that unlock new paths and alter the environment. Complete additional objectives, solve puzzles, and make careful choices — every decision can be the difference between life and death.

When danger is near, you can hide in lockers, under beds, or other environmental hiding spots. Timing and positioning are critical — a single mistake can be fatal.

With a tense atmosphere, limited visibility, and immersive audio design, Vanaden delivers a psychological horror experience where every shadow could hide a threat. Will you survive the darkness and escape?
