About the Game

White Ward is an atmospheric horror, walking simulator set in the infinite halls of a white hospital.
Your goal as the players is to escape the hospital before it is your turn in the waiting room.
To do so you must navigate the infinite looping wards of the hospital while watching out for any changes in the ward.
Will you be able to escape, or will you succumb to the endless halls of the White Ward.
White Ward is inspired by thing's like the back rooms, exit 8, and liminal spaces.

Learn The Ninth Ward...

White Ward takes place in a series of ever changing hospital wards. Your goal is to memorize the 9'th ward then keep an eye out for any changes in the subsequent wards.

Watch out for anomalies...

Anomalies can spawn within the wards. When you spot an anomaly you must turn around and go back from where you came.

Escape The Line...

Within the halls of the White Ward you will find the waiting room. With every mistake your place in line will grow one step closer. If escaping the ward ever becomes too much then take a seat and help will be with you shortly.
