About

Sentenced to life in prison for your crimes, you’ve been given a rare and unexpected chance at freedom. The offer is simple but unsettling: participate in a highly experimental trial for a new drug designed to treat memory loss. In exchange, your sentence will be commuted. It’s an opportunity most would jump at, but nothing comes without a price.
The experiment seems straightforward. You’ll take the drug, enter an experiment room, and observe your surroundings. When you leave and return, you must identify what has changed and enter it into the computer system. Complete all three experiment rooms successfully, and you’ll earn your freedom.
But as the test progresses, the rooms begin to feel less like controlled environments and more like a nightmare. Is it the drug? The experiment? Or something more sinister lurking in the shadows?
Freedom is within your grasp, but can you trust your own mind to get you there?

Estimated Gameplay Time: Completion time varies, but the game is designed to be finished in approximately 3 hours or longer.
Explore Three Unique Rooms: Each room offers a distinct environment filled with dozens of object anomalies and events to discover.
Deadly Threats: Encounter many dangerous threats, each requiring a specific strategy to overcome. Failing to respond correctly will result in death.
Survive or Restart: Failing to identify anomalies correctly will cost you lives. If you run out of lives, you’ll be killed and must restart from the beginning of the current room.
Room Progression: Successfully completing a room unlocks the next. To finish the game, you must unlock and complete all three rooms and face a final task.
Permanent Room Unlocks: Progression is permanent; once a room is unlocked, it remains accessible, allowing you to restart from that room without needing to replay previous sections.
Discover the Story: The deeper you progress, the more the story unfolds. Find hidden details throughout your play to fully reveal the truth behind the experiment.
Two Difficulty Modes:
Standard Difficulty: The intended gameplay experience.
Hard Difficulty: A significant challenge for those seeking a more intense experience.

Very fun and different take on an anomaly game. The threats are challenging and very scary and it feels satisfying to complete a room. Updates keep coming which have been addressing feedback and issues so it will only keep improving!
I LOVE THIS GAME!!! its not perfect but its actually good! Hello!!! i got this game for free, i streamed this game, it ran decently... There are obviously some issues that need to be fixed. These being, lag spikes on the monsters loading in, some small frames when walking through the main hallway, issues with the enemy's in hard mode. That's about it! Suggestions i would make for this game other then fixing the above issues ( i played this for a while ) - the room passing quicker after selecting the buttons after a run, ( mainly in hard mode) as there's a small issue with both screens still loading through if you click the buttons instantly. Notes on hard mode, HARD MODE IS EXTREMELY HARD, i could not get past room 4 on hard mode i just couldn't, sometimes i couldn't even tell if there was even anything wrong ( that could be a me issue who knows).. but its extremely hard. The enemies in hard mode are a bit weird, i could never get past the darker creepy guy that spawns in the hallway... i would stare at him to stop him from moving but when i went into leave i was insta killed every time even when he was in front of me. ( is this meant to happen? i'm unsure?) the mannequins are +++++++ creepy... extremely well done!!!, easy in standard mode, feels impossible in hard ( only came across them once in hard), died in like 3 seconds. game does need some bits here and there but i loved being able to figure out how to get past the areas and discovering what was new! this game actually scared me ( i play manyyyyy horrors so its a nice feeling ) highly recommend this i cant wait to play more ( and figure out how to get through hard mode)

I'm a big fan of observation duty type games so when I saw this game I figured it would be right up my alley! Sure enough it was but the constant suspense keeps me on my toes- there is threats in this game that you have to figure out the mechanics for and avoid WHILE looking for anomalies. Having to juggle the two gameplay mechanics brings something new and fresh to the anomaly searching genre, I hope to see more like it!
The Anomaly Experiment by Authogin is a psychological horror game where you're offered freedom by joining a trial for a new drug. The experiment is simple: enter the room, observe, and identify what has changed. Complete all tasks, and your sentence is commuted. But the further you go, the more unsettling your reality becomes. Pros: ✔️ Unique Twist on the Genre: The idea of a threat adds a fresh layer to the anomaly-spotting formula. ✔️ Time Pressure Adds Tension: Limiting how much time you have to look around ramps up the panic in a good way. ✔️ Variety of Anomalies: There are a lot of interesting anomalies to spot, keeping you on your toes. Cons: ❌ Inconsistent Anomalies: Some paranormal elements that would be anomalies in other games aren't here, which feels odd. A giant ghost summoned from hell should be more of a red flag than a moved bed. Sometimes the ghosts take away from the core "something is wrong" vibe. ❌ Weak Story Integration: The story feels emphasized but doesn't provide much to the actual world development. Infact for the sake of the story it almost slows the pase down to a near hault. ❌ Punishing Mechanics: The game is almost overly punishing for incorrect guesses, which can be frustrating. Conclusion: It's a pretty decent game, and while I can see the appeal, it's not quite my favorite anomaly game. I appreciate them trying something different and think it has its merits, but I just didn't mesh well with the formula. Score: 7 out of 10 reality glitches—a solid attempt that didn't quite click for me.
I don't know what fresh hell inspires Authogin's games, but I am here for it. The Anomaly Experiment combines spot the difference horror with a number of monsters or threats to keep you guessing, and keep you dying. I like the multiple levels, I like the style and variety of anomalies, and I love the level of challenge that knowing your surroundings while fleeing for your life brings. It took time to figure out both monsters and anomalies, but Authogin's games are worth spending time in.
If you’re up for a challenging game where you have to complete consecutive challenges back to back to open another level, then this game is for you. Check out my gameplay for first impressions!

It gives me The Cabin Factory vibes, but perhaps on a much more sinister level considering you play as a test subject in a mysterious research facility. The pacing is maybe a slow-burn tension with each new anomaly discovery, but there were times I thought I was safe and the game twists the unexpected. So far, based on what I've played, there's not a strong story progression as such, but more so revolving around your character's mental state. There's a lot that makes you question what's real, considering you are a test subject. If you're a fan of games that allow you (your character) to experience the anomalies in person, then definitely give this one a try. Gameplay: https://youtu.be/0jERJ1uHGMo
I almost ♥♥♥♥ my pants 10/10. Would recommend.
Co to ♥♥♥♥♥ gra, że jak raz się pomylisz to cię zagazowują. Niesprawiedliwe i niesłuszne. Baba normalnie z pentagramu wychodzi na środku kuchni, a oni do mnie, że dobrze wszystko, że nic dziwnego się nie dzieje. No tak, bo u mnie co drugi dzień baba z pentagramu w kuchni wychodzi i kawkę razem pijemy. Normalna sytuacja. Gra ciężka, nie polecam.
