About the Game

When Daniel loses his six-year-old daughter Alice to leukemia, something inside him dies.

The house is quiet. The days blur together.

Then his sister disappears.

Determined to find her, Daniel is drawn into a fractured mirror world shaped by grief and trauma - a place where reality bends and forgotten memories refuse to stay buried.

To save his sister, Daniel must confront memories he can no longer outrun.

A slow, suffocating descent into loss and distorted memories. A place where reality no longer feels real.

Episode 1: Death’s Reach

begins a deeply personal psychological horror story - a quiet and haunting exploration of what remains after losing the one thing that mattered most.

What to expect:

  • Atmospheric, story-driven psychological horror

  • A surreal mirror world shaped by grief and trauma

  • No traditional combat.

  • A heavy emotional focus on loss, guilt, and isolation

  • The first chapter of a larger story

Sometimes you don’t enter another world by accident.

Sometimes you enter it because there is nothing left for you in your own.
