About This Game

The Quantum Mystery

Investigate the Threads of Reality

Malevolent Madness is a first-person psychological horror and forensic mystery that places scientific reasoning at the center of terror. This is not a story about monsters lurking in the dark it is about understanding the horrifying logic of a discovery that should never have been made.

You play as a specialized scientist abducted into the hidden laboratory of a disgraced professor whose experiments with time and quantum instability have begun to fracture reality itself. Survival is only the beginning. To escape, you must think like a researcher, an analyst, and a forensic investigator piecing together evidence left behind by a mind consumed by obsession.

The time machine is real.
And it is already running.

Key Investigative Features

🔍 Forensic Evidence Collection
Explore sealed laboratories, maintenance corridors, and contaminated test chambers to recover biological samples, DNA markers, and technical artifacts. Every collected fragment feeds into your understanding of the machine’s structure and the catastrophic consequences of its misuse.

🧩 Scientific Deduction & Puzzle Design
Progression demands more than item collection. You must actively correlate the professor’s failed experiments, operational logs, and anomalous data to reconstruct how the machine functions and how it can be neutralized before irreversible collapse occurs.

📓 Analytical Narrative Reconstruction
Every document, audio log, and research note is a component of a larger equation. By reviewing evidence through a scientific lens, you uncover the truth behind your abduction, the professor’s descent into madness, and the ethical line he chose to cross.

👁️ Strategic Stealth & Behavioral Analysis
An advanced AI-controlled threat stalks the facility. There is no direct confrontation survival depends on observing patterns, analyzing movement logic, and exploiting environmental systems through stealth and parkour-based traversal.

🎧 Sensory-Based Investigation
Sound and visual design are not atmospheric filler they are investigative tools. Subtle audio distortions, visual glitches, and environmental anomalies serve as warnings, clues, and indicators of reality destabilization.

Solve the Malevolence

The machine is active.
Timelines are destabilizing.
The boundary between universes is eroding.

Will you solve the professor’s final equation and shut the system down…
or become another corrupted data point in an experiment that devours worlds?
