About the Game

Philip Oakes, a middle-aged family man, awakens in a cold concrete hallway and struggles to recall his past.

Upon exploring, Philip finds himself in a home that resembles his own, and speaks with an unknown caller who guides him.

Doors locked, Philip must find a way out of the many rooms he explores.

With vintage music blaring from a nearby record player and the door banging with someone attempting to break in, Philip is short on time.

Will Philip solve the twisted puzzles in each room and discover the truth, or will he succumb to the pressure?

Locks, codes, papers, and clues all await.

As Philip Oakes ventures through the many puzzles and rooms of the familiar residence, he uncovers fragments of his past before finally discovering a truth—a reality—that puts everything into question.
