About This Game

Hello, friend

"If you're reading this, chances are things aren't looking too hot. But that's alright - take a deep breath and focus. Today is special, as they like to remind us.

It's a simple game they got us playin’ and you're gonna do just fine.

Ya pull the lever, ya see a number. Guess if the next number is higher or lower and, if you’re right, ya get some points and ya get to keep right on playin’.

If you’re wrong, well… let's not worry about that... You’re gonna do just fine.

Now, I know what you're thinking. That sounds too simple. And maybe it is. But when the timer starts ticking and the Sunken start grinding their teeth out in the fields and you can hear them clackin and crackin as they inch closer and closer, well, maybe simple’s ok. Maybe you just want a game to play before they send you back down and simple's just fine for that.

I heard one of us escaped years ago but who knows if that's true, could be somethin they tell us just to give us hope. Anyway, it's my turn. Wish me luck."

Flathead

A simple game of over or under taken to the darkest extreme. Strapped to a machine with a plethora of gadgets, the footsteps of a nightmarish terror approach from behind. Your only hope is to save enough points to pay for your escape before the inevitable.

Flathead is designed as a highly replayable, single-sitting game dripping with tension and atmosphere. A simple idea of over or under becomes a strategic gamble with your life as a variety of tools and the strategies they introduce give a unique depth to an innocent concept. Increase your odds, accumulate point multipliers, gain unique modifiers, and more. But no matter how well you’re doing, maybe don’t look over your shoulder…

Today was special, participant.
