6 itemsAbout the Game
This game is a psychological horror experience played from a first-person perspective, supporting 1 to 4 players in online co-op. Players awaken in an unknown underground research facility with no memory and must work together to escape this sealed system.
A dangerous entity roams the facility, capable of detecting players through sound and movement. There is no direct way to fight it; however, its weaknesses can be discovered and used to neutralize it. These weaknesses can be observed with careful attention, while certain tools may assist the process—at the cost of drawing unwanted attention.
Neutralizing the entity is only one way to escape. Players can also uncover alternative exits by reading notes and interacting with the environment. Each escape path requires overcoming systems and obstacles beforehand, and attempting to bypass them unprepared may lead to deadly consequences.
Throughout the game, players will encounter environmental puzzles to access new areas or activate systems. Your path is shaped entirely by your investigation, attention to detail, and cooperation with your team.
