You’re a detective tracking a brutal murder. The forest holds the documents. The warehouse hides the body. Evidence in hand, you head back—but the forest has changed. The path is gone. Something’s watching. And it doesn’t want you to leave.

About This Game

Story

You arrive at the edge of the forest—the last known location of a set of bloodstained documents tied to a brutal murder. The air is thick with decay. The silence, oppressive.

Scattered pages lie on the ground, soaked in blood and dirt. Time is running out.

You press on toward the warehouse.

Inside, the victim’s body awaits—dismembered, each limb carefully positioned like a message from the killer. You gather the remains. It’s grisly work, but vital.

With the evidence in hand, you turn toward the forest. But the path out is no longer the same.

Someone—or something—is watching. And you must not scream.

How to Play

Step into the role of a detective investigating the murder of a notorious crime boss. Search a sprawling forest and a decrepit warehouse for scattered evidence—including the victim’s body parts. Once you’ve found everything, escape back to the station before it’s too late.

But be warned:
Your microphone is your enemy. Make a sound, and you might not survive.
