About
Dawn Of The Millenium - the year is 2001. You're a novice librarian tasked with keeping things running smoothly and closing up shop for the night. Sort out the shelves, maintain the utilities of the library and take calls as they come in - but keep your ears to the ground; there's something sinister unfurling in Maple Falls County.
Logic-oriented puzzles and mechanics make up most of this game with a fully integrated physics and object-grabbing system, drawing inspiration from horror games of the past and present.
The game takes roughly 30-60 minutes to finish depending on your own individual pace. It features multiple paths the player can take, and even has a secret easter egg. Think you can find it?
Highly recommended for playing in the dark - the muted orange hue of the library coupled with the dark atmosphere should be very easy on the eyes. An ideal game for those seeking a cozy indie horror experience. Also, headphones are a big must if you enjoy immersive 3D sound design.

A great short horror game. The atmosphere was amazing, and the music playing on the radio added another layer to it. A gem that is worth playing. I look forward to more work from the creators.
Had no idea what to expect. Can't believe this was a free game. Hope you've got some other projects coming down the pipeline! - A fan.
Sin boton de continuar, y el final 2 esta pegado al 1, por lo cual si rozas la puerta perdiste todo el progreso sin opcion alguna para sacarte el final interesante. no pienso hacer todo de vuelta por seguramente un final soso.

I played this game before its Steam release, and it’s great to see it reaching more players. It starts simple and unfolds slowly, but the atmosphere builds nicely. It’s a short, Fun, engaging, and completely free, it’s definitely worth trying. Bear in mind it is this dev’s first project. Recommended https://youtu.be/jUmAhZJ9jFg
Total W Game. Absolutely loved it. I was bummed at first because I got the good ending on accident when exploring. I went back and got the bad ending and wasn't disappointed. Great work!

the game is pretty good, it has a good buildup, however it does struggle with ~15 straight minutes of watching tapes
It's an Indie Game but the atmosphere is on point, I love the rainy night, and the location. I wish I didn't have to replay the whole game to see both endings. And please FIX the BROOM! Great game.

Ben oyunu çok beğendim. Yürüyüş falan çok yavaş ama ücretsiz korku oyunlarına göre iyi bir iş başarmışlar. Dışarda şimşek çakmasının sesiyle elektriğin kesilmesi falan ve telefonla konuşma kısmı çok etkileyici olmuş. Seslendirme güzel. Keşke Türkçe desteği olsaydı oyunda ama global anlamda gerçekten güzel bir oyun olmuş. Gözü yormayan bir korku oyunu. Siz kütüphanede çalışan bir insansınız. Oynamanızı tavsiye ederim.
