Tense and immersive from start to finish — every moment had me on edge!

The jumpscares in this was well done well placed and unpredictable! I know there was more but i just can't and dont want to prove it. Also the escape room/ puzzle aspect was excellent for progression. Some say jumscares are cheap but it keeps you on your toes right? This demo was fire.

10/10 gam

I will be playing this live tomorrow 10/24 around 5-530 PM EST =D.

I'll keep an eye on it!! You can now set aside at least an hour of live for this demo ;)

W DEMO!! My only suggestion, make the dialogue "click through" vs timed events. Easier to follow along. SCARED AND SHOCKED ME

Hey, thanks for playing!!! And you can be sure that I will implement the click mechanic in the dialogues, yes... in the next update I will already be bringing that! Once again, thanks for playing and thanks for the game play, I will go there soon to watch.

con la tensión olvidé lo que buscaba....

Thanks for playing!! How about trying version 2.0? I'd love to hear your feedback!

This was more terrifying than the first demo. I like the new puzzles and mechanics. The story of how we got into this situation is pretty good so far. This was definitely an upgrade from the first demo and it's made me even more hyped for the full release. If a demo can be this terrifying then I can't imagine what the full game will be like. I got a feeling this is going to be one of the best games to come out this year. Keep up the good work.

Man, I'm really happy to know that you played and liked both versions, I hope to continue surprising you. Thanks again for playing and sharing the gameplay of our project!!!

Great game so far! That spider can piss right off though haha

Did this really happen? It's really scary.

Yes this really happened!!! Don't let sheriff Poul lure you into the box!  There is a big investgiation going on about this right now!!

my heart couldn't take this one

IT is scary 👌

WHY DOES EVERY SINGLE HORROR GAME HAVE INSECTS OR DEMONS OR CLOWNS, CAN'T I JUST ENJOY A NICE WALK THROUGH A PARK OR SOMETHING?! Youtube Link -

I can't wait until the full game comes out. This was a really fun and creepy demo! 

OUTSTANDING JOB DEVELOPER, IM READY FOR THE FULL GAME!!!

Gameplay + Análise no meu canal! Tamo junto!

Every sound and shadow keeps you on edge as you try to uncover the truth behind the box

Absolutely agree! The atmosphere and audio design really kept me on edge. The mystery of the box is gripping—I can’t wait to see how the full game expands on it.

hell yeaaaa
