About this game

The Well is a horror game with a deep story and different puzzles played by a single player.

In the spring of 1991, Mike goes to the village house of his grandfather who was lost in Normandy during World War II. Mike learns that there are strange missing cases and deaths in the village he has never been to before.

Mike goes after his kidnapped aunt. This will draw him to the well in the garden of the house. But there is something he does not know. Those who enter this well have never come out again.

The houses in this village witnessed torture and bad events in World War II. The people who survived were psychologically affected by these events. When it came to the 90s, missing people, murders and horrifying events began to occur.

Will you be able to find the way out and solve the mystery in the game where you control Mike? There will be puzzles that will result in death if you make a mistake, things you will have to sacrifice, and moments when you are indecisive. Put yourself in Mike's shoes and dive into this deep, fearful story!
