About the Game

Victim Complex is an eerie, atmospheric survival horror game about exploring a haunted apartment complex, where several people have already died under mysterious and tragic circumstances… and whatever killed them is still lurking, hungry for blood. Put your wits and your ghost-hunting tools to work to solve the mystery of all those deaths– before it’s too late to prevent your own!

FEATURES

  • Make your way through the deadly darkness, using your flashlight to find the path… and draw attention to yourself. 

  • Eerie apartment-building full of secrets and stories of the people who died there, and of things yet to come. 

  • Use your ghost-hunting tools, such as the EMP Meter, to detect supernatural presence, and then gather clues to figure out the best way to react!

  • Full voice-acting contributes to a tense atmosphere and engaging story!

  • Avoid the deadly presence stalking the halls of the apartment building as you help the lost spirits find peace.

HOPEFULLY, ALL THOSE YEARS PRETENDING HAVE TAUGHT YOU A THING OR TWO

Jack Lognare is the best fake ghost-hunter around; there’s no one better at going into “haunted” buildings with a bunch of light-up doodads and a spooked expression and pretending to be terrified– or more often, not. When he gets a well-paying offer to declare an abandoned apartment complex officially “exorcised”, he shows up in the middle of the night with his usual tools… and quickly discovers that he’s stumbled across the real deal! For the first time, he’ll have to walk the walk– or find himself joining the dead!

HELP THE DEAD FIND THEIR PEACE!

The apartment complex is full of the lingering spirits of the people who have died there, through mysterious accidents– or perhaps at the hands of the malevolent entity stalking the halls. Explore the building– the units, the laundry-room, the mail-room, the dumpsters, the basement, everywhere– in order to find clues and useful items related to the past lives and deaths. When the time is right, make peace between the spirits and their torment, and cleanse them from the complex. Perhaps even the dark malevolence itself can be somehow understood…
