About this game
FOR EXPERIENCED VR PLAYERS.
CRYODEATH assumes you already have your VR legs — intense, physical and unrelenting. It is a hard game, and it is not the game to start VR on.
You are an engineer aboard the deep-space station Evriskon.
Die, and that engineer is gone. No checkpoint, no retry. A new engineer wakes up somewhere else entirely — and the Evriskon is enormous. A labyrinth you only ever see a piece of. Different decks, different dark, and nothing you learned last time worth anything.
Most horror stops being frightening the second you’ve memorized it. The Evriskon is too big to memorize.
Crating may save your life ...
Scavenge the station and wire together gadgets to distract, delay and disable. Sound carries, light betrays you, and panic makes your mistakes loud.
Descending is the only way forward
Every level below is worse. The lower decks hold things older, stranger and better at finding you. Getting good doesn’t make the Evriskon safer. It just gets you closer to escape.
Some content creators didn’t make it past their first encounter.
What you’re getting into
One life per engineer — death is permanent.
A station too big to learn — you never wake in the same place twice.
Route knowledge is worthless — no two playthroughs run the same way.
Deeper is deadlier — worse company the further you go.
Craft your way out — stealth keeps you alive longest, not forever.
Hands on everything — diegetic, physical, no floating menus.
Hunt Mode
Finish the station and it hands you something worse - new terms, its own ending, and a sidearm for when improvising stops working.
Wake up. Find out what happened. Get off before they find you.
