What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“In early access, I aim to solve the potential problems quickly that can be encountered by the players with different hardware, thus, standardizing the enjoyment of the game.
Within this period, I intend to increase the game experience and extend the game content by improving and editing the content according to the feedback I will receive from the users.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“I aim to release the full version of the game to the players in 6 months.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“I aim to provide users more extensive gaming experience with the full version.
I plan to add new game modes, maps, and equipment in different concepts adhering to the main idea. In addition to these, I plan to add in-game points earned at the end of every game and a character customization add-on.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The early access version is complete, and it includes all the features written in the game description. Items, features, and game modes are explained in detail in the description. As the add-ons come, I will update the game page and inform users via the Discord server.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“Taking the feedback from the player community into consideration, the game modes, equipment, and features that I will add to the game in early access will increase the price at reasonable levels in the future.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“The community’s thoughts, questions, and concerns are important to me, and I want everyone to know that they are free to contact me about any issue. The users can contact me directly via e-mail, Steam forums, or joining the Discord server specified on the game page.”

About This Game


There has been a substantial increase in crime rates in the not-too-distant future, and states have implemented new and experimental methods of execution against this increase.

Authorities have initiated a pardon program known as ELEVATED to reduce crime rates and reintegrate death row prisoners into society.

The ELEVATED Project was classified as a stand-alone treatment aimed at the convicts to become law-abiding citizens of the society.








The players must complete the tasks assigned to them after being divided into two teams of eight death row inmates and an executioner.

While the prisoners are trying to reach the safe room by completing all the tasks without being caught, the executioner must prevent the prisoners by using the strategies he had developed.

Using the items left at specific spots within the facility, the inmates can distract the executioner and protect themselves when they are stuck in a difficult situation.

While the tasks are waiting to be completed behind closed doors, the executioner is alert in the corridors, corners, and shadows.

Key Features



The main game mode that you can play in early access, for now, is complete, and the key features of the mode are as follows;
  • “Apocalypse” Game Mode



The convicts try to reach the safe room by completing three main tasks without dying.


  • Must find the paper that shows the door number,

  • Must activate 1 to 6 electrical switches, the number of which varies according to the difficulty of the game, to enable the password panels,

  • Must find every piece of the four-digit password to unlock the safe room,

  • Can protect themselves from the executioner with the tools they will find at different points on the map.

  • Can blind the executioner with the flare gun for some time,

  • Can stun the executioner with the taser, preventing him from moving for a while,

  • Can restrict the executioner’s field of vision by using the fire extinguisher,

  • Can use injection for pain relief to recover in case of an injury,

  • Should watch their backs or walk around as small groups since having an FPS view,

  • Can try to escape from the executioner by hiding in metal lockers; but, they should never forget that the lockers are not bullet-proof.

  • After a convict enters the safe room, the others must reach the room too before the countdown ends. Otherwise, the explosives on their necks will explode and kill them.



The executioner tries to defuse the convicts using a submachine gun and a machete.


  • Can see the facility better, and by that, he can ambush the convicts as the executioner has a TPS view.

  • Can travel fast between floors with the elevators that can be used only by him.

  • Can view the locations of the convicts for 5 seconds on the map. With the same map, he can control the iron gates in specific corridors and block the escape routes of the convicts temporarily.

  • At the beginning of each game, the rooms with the tasks are determined randomly, so every new game will be different from the other.

  • FPS (For the convicts) and TPS (For the executioner) views,

  • Collectible items placed on the map,

  • Option to play solo or as a team,

  • Single-player with AI, Multiplayer with friends or other players,

  • Voice chat with other players,

  • Randomly determined task locations for each game,

  • Interaction with the map.

New game modes, concepts and features that will be added during early access will be announced both on the Steam Community and the Discord server.
