About
The year is 2005. Civilization collapsed after a global energy blackout.
What remains of humanity now hides underground, sealed inside bunkers to escape the horrors roaming the surface.
You are R2-P23H, an autonomous maintenance unit assigned to Bunker 01, buried deep within a forgotten forest.
A disembodied voice gives you orders through a flickering monitor.
But the forest... seems alive.
There’s something out there. Something that listens. Something that doesn't want you here.
Explore a decaying post-apocalyptic world.
Solve twisted puzzles.
Avoid what moves through the fog.
And uncover the truth about who you are... or what you've become.

You were made to obey. To maintain. To survive.
But the forest remembers something you've forgotten.
You dream.
You hesitate.
You hear your name when no one speaks.
And deep down... you know you shouldn’t.
Atmospheric first-person horror with subtle survival elements.
Puzzles seamlessly integrated into the environment and story.
Hidden secrets that alter your understanding of the world.
Tense stealth sections: crouch, listen, and stay silent.
Constant psychological tension — no cheap jumpscares.

Reviews
The game features simple and accessible gameplay. Since it's developed by a solo indie developer and was released fairly recently, it still has some of the classic early-stage bugs. For example, enemy collision detection occasionally glitches, and while the audio quality isn't the best, it's far from terrible. That said, I haven’t encountered any bugs that break the experience or prevent story progression—just minor issues that could easily be addressed with a few patches or hotfixes. I’m not sure if the developer plans to expand the lore or content in future updates, but considering the limited gameplay time, the €6 price tag feels slightly high. Overall, the game shows a lot of promise given its development conditions. It just needs some support and polish to reach its full potential. The difficulty is very low—I only died once, and that was on purpose just to see what would happen. Lastly, I think the game would benefit from more visual and audio feedback—for example, clearer indicators for interactive objects or a more distinct sound when an enemy detects you.
Good game, with a good choice of aesthetics considering it's a horror game. It doesn't overuse jump scares and the settings are interesting; it hooked me in really well for a first chapter. There may be a few minor bugs with the enemy, and it would be nice to add more batteries along the way, knowing that energy is used up faster as you pick up speed. For a game developed by a single person, it looks relatively good, IMO. I got a few scares (knowing that I'm also a coward and not very used to playing horror games XD) It just needs a little more time and polishing, but I have high hopes for the next chapter. I liked it.
its a small little indie game with good potential and already a good gameplay loop.
Es un juego de miedo corto pero bastante entretenido y con buen potencial. Me gustaron los pequeños sustos que aparecían y la tensión durante gran parte del juego
