You entered through the wrong door and ended up in an unusual place: a damp carpet, buzzing lights, and yellow wallpaper stretching far beyond what seems reasonable. There’s no exit, only a workbench, a furnace, and the remnants of the previous expedition.
A chair can be dismantled into sticks, sticks turned into a torch, and boards into a workbench. Then come stone tools, followed by steel ones, each allowing you to access what the previous ones couldn’t. The furnace melts metal, and the salvage bench dismantles furniture into parts.
Each time you start, the world changes — except for the first room. A yellow line on the floor marks the boundary: anything built within it stays put, but beyond it, nothing is certain.
Your health, hunger, thirst, and grip on objects matter. Almond water helps clear your mind, and a bandage heals bites. In the dark, a torch is your only defence against the unknown.
White-tiled pool rooms, server halls with blueish half-light, warehouses, hotel corridors — all kinds of places, along with locked rooms, anomalous seams, and flickering zones, are recorded in the journal.
How to play
On a computer: move with WASD or the arrow keys, use Shift to run, Space to jump, and C to crouch. Look around with the mouse. Hold the left mouse button to mine blocks or pull apart furniture — on creatures, it's a swing. The right button is for placing blocks, eating, drinking, or opening a workbench or furnace. Use keys 1-9 and the mouse wheel to select items from your belt. E opens the inventory and crafting menu, J brings up the journal, and Esc pauses the game.
On a phone: touch the screen to make the joystick appear on the left; hold it near the edge to run. Swipe across the screen to look around. Press and hold on a block to start mining, keeping your finger down to continue. A quick tap places, uses, or attacks. Jump and crouch buttons are on the right, along with a weapon button when you're holding one. Tap the bag at the end of the belt to access the inventory and crafting, and find the journal in the top corner.
