About
Damned: A Randomized Online Horror Game
- What is Damned?
Damned is a randomized online horror game for up to 5 players (4 survivors and 1 monster).
You’ll be able to play as one of four people trapped in different haunted places (hotels, hospitals, etc).
As a survivor your main objective will be finding your way out, as well as helping your friends get out too. You’ll often find yourself on the edge, hearing and seeing ghostly things, trying to find keys and items to help in your escape. And sometimes you’ll find yourself running desperately from a monster, who’s there only to find and kill you and your friends.
You’ll also be able to play as the monster. The game will feature different monsters, each one unique in its gameplay and hunting style.
- What kind of horror game is Damned?
Damned explores the sense of being defenseless against a powerful supernatural force. The survivors can’t directly affect the monster in any way. When it’s there to get you, your only chance is to run and hide.
This perception of being defenseless is very strong, primal and terrifying, it builds up anxiety and makes you really scared, fearing any unexplained noise or movement.
This is how Damned creates horror in a multiplayer game session, and we believe it to be super effective! (tested and approved!)
- Why is Damned a randomized game?
Every stage in Damned is randomized:
Almost all the objects in a stage may or may not appear;
The item system is fully random too, randomizing which item will appear in the game, and where it'll be;
The way to win a match as a survivor is also randomized;
Even the stage may trigger random events to scare the survivors inside.
- Why is Damned a competitive and cooperative game?
Because in a full game, with 4 survivors and 1 monster, there’ll be a survivor “team” cooperating to try and escape together, and at the same time they’ll be competing against a monster, trying to flee from him and deny each one of its attempt to hunt and kill a survivor.
- How to play as a survivor?
As a survivor you’ll be cooperating with your friends (up to 4 survivors in a single game session):
You and your friends will be searching the level for keys and items to help in your escape;
Each survivor will have a flashlight that can be turned on and off, helping you see your surroundings, but at the same time letting the monster know where you are;
The survivors will be able to manipulate objects throughout the hotel, like drawers, doors, safes, cabinets, wardrobes;
Challenge yourself to find the exit and get out alive.
- How to play as the monster?
As the monster, your game will be all about competing alone against the survivors team.
The game will feature different monsters, each one unique in its play style. It's up to you to play a few rounds with each monster and decide which one works best for you.
How are you going to hunt and kill the survivors?
- Why is Damned worth buying?
Because it’s fun!
It’s really scary, you’ll find yourself on the edge a lot of times, trying to evade the monster or trying to pay closer attention because you don’t know if the sound you just heard is some random noise or if it is the monster haunting you.
It’s a real horror game, it explores deeply the feeling of being completely defenseless against a powerful force that can finish you easily. Your only choice is to run and hide!
And also because it’s really fun to play as the monster as well. You’ll keep haunting and building up anxiety in people, making them terribly scared of you. We really put you in the skin of a terrifying monster.

Reviews
One of the best horror games and the developers are really good people.
当初因为看斗鱼恐怖游戏直播里怂三和老猫(不知道他们还播没播了)这几个主播玩才买的诅咒。看我上次在线还是2016年12月,没人跟我玩,估计也就是上线看了看。不得不感慨真是时代的眼泪。
Scam.

полное говнище, пустая трата денег, делать там нечего. А создать лобби это отдельная головоломка
游戏目前不支持中文,但社区中心置顶帖有汉化补丁。 链接:https://steamcommunity.com/app/251170/discussions/0/595139910033242245/ 虽然不是全汉化,但应该能解决大部分问题。 —————— 十几年后迟到的好评。 时运不济,命途多舛。昙花一现的非对称恐怖游戏鼻祖,如今几乎已埋没于时代的烟尘之中。 但是,如果你能找到一群联机的小伙伴,有能力解决影响游戏的大部分bug,你依然能在十几年后体验到其独具一格的乐趣——纯粹恐怖与休闲的体验,有别于当下重竞技、被功利冲淡惊悚的的非对称恐怖游戏。 很遗憾错过了当初的盛景。希望续作越做越好。
This game is awesome. It's such a shame that is dead... I had so much fun playing it. I still recommend it if you have friends to play with.
👻 Damned – alt, aber trotzdem noch gut Klar, Damned ist schon älter – aber es kann trotzdem noch gut unterhalten. Gerade mit mehreren Leuten kommt die Horror-Stimmung immer noch gut rüber und genau das macht den Reiz aus. Man merkt dem Spiel sein Alter an, aber wenn man sich darauf einlässt, macht es trotzdem noch Spass. Vor allem für Fans von asymmetrischem Koop-Horror ist es immer noch einen Blick wert. 🕯️ Nicht mehr neu – aber definitiv noch gut spielbar.
Прощай легенда
I used to play this game on my crappy old laptop with my three brothers (each with their own crappy old laptop), all in the same room for some reason. The game ran like ♥♥♥♥ and was very finicky to get running without one of us crashing (admittedly possibly due to our hardware). And yet, I look back on those nights staying up until 3 AM playing Damned quite fondly, as it was peak gaming. It was actually scary to run around hiding from the monster, and it was awesome to be able to scare the ♥♥♥♥ out of everyone as the monster yourself. Can't say I've played another game since that has made me feel the same rush. Thank you 9heads for all the great memories. I'll have to pick up Damned 2 and see if I can get my brothers together for another gaming session.
