Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

Note: Games in Early Access are not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to play this game in its current state, then you should wait to see if the game progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“"Because anomalies are best when shaped by the players who survive it."
Early Access allows us to refine Anomaly Bus with your feedback—ensuring the most polished experience possible. The game’s core loop (spot anomalies, escape the bus) is already tense and replayable, but we want to:

- Test randomization balance (Are anomalies too obvious or too hidden?).
- Gather stories (What unnerved you most? What broke immersion?).
- Expand content (More anomalies, endings, and secrets based on your input).”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Approximately 3–6 months.
We’re a small team, but the core game is already functional. This window lets us:
✔ Add new anomalies and environmental details.
✔ Polish UI/UX
✔ Implement community-requested features (within reason).”

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

“We plan for the full version to feature:
Expanded anomaly pool with new variants
Additional narrative possibilities and hidden outcomes
Richer audio environments and atmospheric details
More ways to experience the challenge”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Fully playable with ~1–3 hours of gameplay per run (high replayability).
All core systems work: anomaly detection, bus boarding/skipping, "loop" progression, story.”

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

“We plan to gradually raise the price as we ship new content and features.
Early adopters take risks—we want to honor that trust.”

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

“Expect:
- Discord discussions and polls to vote on new anomalies/features.
- A “Seat at the Table”: Top community contributors will get to design one creepy passenger for the full release.”

About This Game

ANOMALY BUS

A Soviet-Era Psychological Adventure Where the Route Never Ends...

The year is 1991. You board a rickety bus in a forgotten Soviet village, heading home after another bleak day. But something’s wrong. The same station keeps appearing—or does it? The signs are familiar, the streets look identical… yet something lurks in the gaps of your memory.

Will you escape the loop? Or become its next passenger?

Inspired by The Exit 8 and I’m On Observation Duty, Anomaly Bus blends memory-based adventure with paranormal fear. Observe. Remember. Survive.

GAMEPLAY

  • RIDE THE BUS HOME… OR... BECOME FOREVER PASSENGER

    • Board only the normal buses—the ones matching your memory of Station 1.

    • If something feels off, skip it. Your life depends on attention, not speed.

  • HIDDEN IN PLAIN SIGHT

    • Anomalies aren’t subtle… but they’re easy to miss if you’re careless.

    • A flickering light. A missing poster. A passenger who wasn’t there before. Scratching on the windows. Ghost driver and more...

  • NO CHEAP SCARES—JUST PURE DREAD

    • No cheap jumpscares… you have to spot the anomaly...

    • The tension builds as the loop tightens. What’s waiting at the final stop?

  • SMALL BUS, ENDLESS TERROR

    • The bus is cramped, but anomalies shift with every ride.

    • Randomization ensures no two playthroughs are the same.

IMMERSE YOURSELF

  • Memory Over Reflexes – Patience is your greatest weapon.

  • Headphones Highly Recommended – The creaks, whispers, and distant Soviet radio static will haunt you.

  • Average Single Playtime: 1 – 3 Hours – A tight, chilling experience with high replayability.
