About This Game

Disclaimer: Purchase of this base game includes the first chapter. Future chapters will be released as DLC.

Welcome to the world after the Blackout.

The year is 2005. Civilization has crumbled after a global energy collapse known as the Blackout. Scattered survivors cling to life in underground bunkers, sealed away from the horrors that roam the surface.

You are R2-P23H, an autonomous maintenance unit assigned to Bunker 01, deep within a forgotten forest.

A man speaks to you through a monitor, giving you orders. But the forest feels… alive.
Something out there is watching. Something that doesn’t want you here.

Try to stay alive in this first-person horror experience.

Explore a decaying post-apocalyptic world. Solve twisted puzzles. Avoid what lurks beyond the trees. And uncover the truth about who you are—or what you’ve become.

Are you just a machine?

You were built to obey. To maintain. To survive.

But the forest remembers something you’ve forgotten.
You dream. You hesitate. You listen when it calls your name.

And somewhere, deep inside… You know you weren’t meant to.

Are you ready to see what’s left of the world?
