Overview

About this game

In the middle of the countryside lies an isolated religious community—oppressive, strict, and hiding secrets behind the façade of a simple farmhouse. When Melissa returns after receiving a single phone call from her sister, she quickly realizes this isn’t just a “missing person” case: the house lets you in… but it doesn’t let go easily.

Blending survival horror and psychological tension with exploration, puzzles, and hide-and-escape gameplay, you experience the nightmare from an “isolated” perspective. As you move through narrow corridors by flashlight, you piece the truth together through notes, diary pages, and children’s drawings. To survive, you’ll have to defend yourself. Every clue opens a new door—some only lead you deeper.

  • Escape from relentless threats that hunt you through confined spaces
