About This Game

Death By Misstep is a first-person horror and stealth game where music shapes how you survive.

THEY CAN HEAR YOU BREATHE

Robots have turned the Samos cruise ship into a massacre. Play as Jessi and search for a way out while hiding the sound of her breathing in the music.

Keep the beat to help stay undetected. Lose it, and you could give yourself away.

Jessi hides behind cover while a robot patrols on the other side.

Adjust the required timing precision to adapt the rhythmic challenge. You still need to time your inputs to the music.

STAY OUT OF SIGHT

Find cover, watch the robots and use distractions to get past them. Hiding your breathing will not help if you step into their line of sight.

A robot with orange lights patrols a room aboard the Samos among furniture and neon lights.

UNCOVER WHAT HAPPENED

Explore a luxury cruise ship turned into a nightmare. Find the objects you need, solve the puzzles blocking your path and uncover Jessi's story and the secrets of the Samos.

A room aboard the Samos with walls covered in notes and red lighting.
