“虽然批上了一层恐怖的外衣,但内里依然是Q叔熟悉的推理探案解谜。从孙美琪到林山海,独立游戏开发者QZQ用数十年如一日的坚持为玩家们带来了一款款好玩经典的作品,在圈子里已经渐渐形成了一个标杆。可以很负责任地说,本次的《异常1999:49区》或许是Q叔在场景设计上的巅峰,至于解谜部分则依然一如既往的好,不过引导不足的问题也依然存在,好在早就通过数部作品的积累形成了一个稳定的用户群体。”

Made by a Solo Independent Developer


Welcome to the puzzle game world of QZQ Studio. Sector 49 is the fifth episode of the Abnormal1999 game series, my latest series. I am an avid solo game developer named Q. I have been developing mystery puzzle games and enjoy what I do. I am active on social media and in groups, feel free to communicate with me.

Abnormal1999 Series


Abnormal1999 is a series of independent games developed by QZQ Studio, based on a sci-fi background of quantum mechanics and the multiverse, incorporating elements of exploration, horror, puzzle-solving, and reasoning.

The protagonist is a girl named SU. The story revolves around her and her family. SU, for some reason, can freely travel through the fourth dimension. She wants to figure out what happened and find a way home.

In this process, she uses this ability to travel to different times and spaces in parallel universes, meeting various people and things, encountering various branches, leading to different realities.

The Abnormal1999 series adopts a continuous update model, with one episode updated each month, to tell SU's story and adventures.

This game, "Sector 49," is the fifth episode of the first season of the Abnormal1999 series. It features super challenging mystery puzzles.

The first four episodes are "With in the Obscurity" "Apartment of Death" "SU," and "Hyperspace."



In this series, you can enter the Abnormal1999 series from any episode, and I will provide a fresh experience in each episode.

Explore the Vast Wasteland World:


The town has many little-known secrets for you to explore. What secrets are hidden behind these classified research projects? You need to uncover them step by step.

Sam comes here to find an answer, both for himself and for his daughter.

Solve High-Difficulty Puzzles and Collect Consciousness:


Solving puzzles and collecting consciousness is the only way to complete the game.

AI Generated Content Disclosure

The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this:

The game uses a small amount of AI-generated textures, materials as assets.

Mature Content Description

The developers describe the content like this:

This game contains some mild horror elements and adult themes. While there are tension-building sequences meant to be unnerving, the game does not depict excessive graphic violence or gore.

The storyline explores mature subject matter, including supernatural occurrences and disturbing situations. However, it does not contain any explicit sexual content. There are references to alcohol and drug use in certain contexts.

Potentially unsettling topics such as death, mental instability, and psychological trauma are present, but they are portrayed respectfully without gratuitous detail. There may be some jump scares and creepy imagery/environments.

Overall, the game maintains a suspenseful and eerie tone rather than relying on shocking visceral content. However, parental guidance is still recommended for younger audiences due to the game's mature thematic elements and unsettling horror overtones throughout the experience.
