About the Game

What if your sleep paralysis demon is more creative than you think?

"When Eyes Close" is a collection of standalone psychological stories. Choose a protagonist whose fate you wish to experience and dive into the nightmare of sleep paralysis, where an unseen force binds your body, and the demon at your bedside offers a deal.

Your goal is to awaken. But the path to it lies through a labyrinth of rooms, filled with fragmented memories that might belong to your hero... or to someone else.

  • Explore. Delve into the details. Every object, every note could be a key.

  • Remember. Piece together the story and appearance of your protagonist. Who are they? What did they do? Or what was done to them?

  • Guess. Find the one true bed among a sequence of random rooms that is yours. It is your only chance to break free.

Every story is a separate life, but not every ending is an awakening. And even if it is, was it worth waking up?
