Manage your gear and stay alive through tense shifts in Haunted Shift, an indie horror game from 2026 where you face supernatural threats in a mine.

About this game

Haunted Shift is a narrative horror game where you work as a security guard performing your duties at a facility. However, not everything during your shift can be logically explained. Survive 6 days at the facility by making good decisions!

Game Description

Security guard Matt gets transferred to protect the FORCE mine in Poland that's being shut down by the government. While performing his duties, he realizes that not everything is as it should be.

As Matt, you manage equipment, note current objectives, patrol the area, protect the facility, and perform routine security guard tasks. However, during this process, our protagonist realizes that not everything in Slavic mythology is made up.

Gameplay

The game features single-player gameplay in FPP mode. It includes a simple inventory system, task journal, psyche level, shooting mechanics, and much more. Interact with various objects using collected items.

The key is surviving the night to be able to play the next one with the next day of the story. Control your mental state and perform your work duties to complete the game.

Fans of puzzles, easter eggs, and achievement hunters will also be satisfied with the gameplay.

Game Features

  • Graphics: The game has been in development for many months using original models and map layout. Enhanced with graphics reminiscent of the transition between 5th and 6th generation consoles.

  • Gameplay: First-person perspective gameplay that allows for deep immersion to better experience the horror genre.

  • Sound Design: Subtle sounds that help you get into the atmosphere of the gameplay.

  • Horror: Good horror requires proper tension maintenance throughout its duration. We've limited the use of primitive jumpscares to a minimum.

  • Unique Story: Are you tired of another game about stalkers or demons in houses? Haunted Shift will offer you a somewhat different experience!
