About this game

Game Overview

In The Strange Box, you play as a child exploring an apartment shrouded in sin and mystery.

Follow fragments of memory and faint clues across the boundary between dreams and reality

all to find your missing friend.

Between Dreams and Reality

Wander through worlds born from a child’s imagination,

only to plunge the next moment into a filthy, decaying apartment.

Solve puzzles hidden in the cracks between dream and reality,

discern truth from illusion, and search for the only way out of this nightmare.

Every Resident Has a Secret

Strange tenants dwell behind every door.

A landlord and his wife secretly nurturing something grotesque,

a butcher shunned by everyone,

and a doctor obsessed with forbidden experiments.

Each is driven by an unseen, ominous force.

Children’s Courage Against Invisible Evi

In the darkness, only innocence still flickers with light.

To find their lost friend, the children embark on a journey to confront sin itself.

Where have all the missing children gone?

Only courage can reveal the truth.
