❤ Game Mechanics

The experience strips players of traditional combat, casting them as Miles Upshur, a journalist who can only flee, hide, and document mounting terrors. Players navigate the Mount Massive Asylum through strategic movement, transforming survival into a pulse-pounding chess match against monstrous inhabitants.

❤ Camera System

A camcorder with night vision becomes the player's lifeline. Batteries drain quickly, forcing critical decisions about when to illuminate dark corridors. Each battery used represents a calculated risk between temporary safety and potential discovery.

❤ Pursuit and Escape Dynamics

Intense chases demand split-second choices: identify split-second hiding spots behind beds, lockers, and broken furniture, navigate labyrinthine asylum hallways with split-second turns, anticipate enemy movement patterns, and execute parkour-like escapes through vents and over obstacles.

❤ Enemy Interaction

Players cannot strike back, creating visceral terror. Mutated patients stalk unpredictably, their movements designed to trigger primal fight-or-flight responses. Each encounter becomes a heart-stopping dance of avoidance.

❤ Atmospheric Design

Horror emerges through ambient sounds that hint at unseen threats, darkness punctuated by momentary, terrifying glimpses, environmental details suggesting past atrocities, and scripted encounters that subvert player expectations.

❤ Progression

Advancement occurs by decoding cryptic documents revealing disturbing institutional history, solving environmental puzzles under extreme psychological pressure, and surviving increasingly sophisticated enemy hunting patterns.

❤ Challenge Mechanics

The experience deliberately tests player resilience with zero combat options, scarce resources, unpredictable AI creating constant uncertainty, and multiple difficulty levels that accommodate different player tolerances.
