About this game

Will you have the courage to find out the scariest secrets of The Room 817 and survive?
GAME FEATURES
A true old-school horror experience. There are no maps, hints, or tutorials here. No one will hold your hand and tell you how to breathe. Remember what
it means to survive.
Gameplay that doesn't forgive mistakes. Death is awaiting around every corner. Watch where you step! Traps and bottomless pits abound!
One life, one try. This game isn't for those who like to save their progress every 10 seconds. There are no checkpoints or save points here. Either you survive or you die.
Run or hide. You're not the predator, you're the prey. The Ancient Evil lurking here awaits its encounter with you.
Listen to what's happening around you. The faint creak of the floorboards or the heavy tread of the monster can help you understand where not to go.
Look around and remember. There's no logic in this place, only your memory and attention to detail will help you solve all the puzzles and find a way out.
An atmosphere of primal terror. Explore the cursed apartment with your camera and flashlight. Uncover all the secrets of this place and find out what happened here.
