The Developer Says...

Players Like...

❤ Explore the Eerie Sintracorp Building

Players take control of Brian Pasternack, a hapless office worker who must navigate the twisted floors of the Sintracorp megacorporation. The top-down, pixel art visuals create a claustrophobic atmosphere as players carefully scan each desk, drawer, and corner for clues and resources. Without a map to guide them, players must rely on their observational skills and mental mapping to uncover new paths and backtrack when necessary.

❤ Overcome Ingenious Puzzles

Puzzle-solving is a core mechanic that challenges players throughout their experience. These range from simple object-based conundrums, such as finding the right item to operate a machine, to more complex logic-based challenges that require lateral thinking to resolve. The puzzles strike a balance between satisfying difficulty and avoid frustration, compelling players to think critically about the information and resources at their disposal.

❤ Manage Scarce Supplies Carefully

Survival horror elements come into play as players must conserve limited resources like coffee, snacks, and "witch paper" used for saving their progress. Each item is precious, forcing players to decide whether to use them now or hold onto them for later. Efficient resource management is vital, as careless consumption can leave players vulnerable during the game's more perilous encounters.

❤ Evade Supernatural Threats

As Brian explores the building, he will encounter various threats, from possessed co-workers to otherworldly creatures. Direct confrontation is not an option, so players must rely on stealth and evasion to stay alive. This involves carefully timing movements, hiding in lockers, and crawling under desks to avoid detection. The AI-controlled threats feel suitably dangerous while also being predictable enough for skilled players to outmaneuver.

❤ Uncover Multiple Endings

The choices players make throughout the game, both major and minor, can significantly impact the final outcome. This encourages multiple playthroughs as players seek to uncover all of the narrative's secrets and alternate paths, each with their own unique variations and story implications.
