About This Game

You come into your shift as a darkroom worker who develops film from customers.  The room is lit by the eerie red tint of safelights.  As you process each photo, something emerges — not just from the images, but from the shadows around you.

Darkroom is a short experimental horror experience that tells its story through photographs you develop.

Each image reveals fragments of a disturbing narrative — blurring the line between memory and reality.  There are no monsters chasing you.  No combat.  Just you, the film, and the growing dread that something isn't right.

FEATURES

  • Atmospheric Horror - Built around tensions, isolation, and subtle unease.

  • Story Through Imagery - Interpret unsettling photos to uncover a hidden truth.

  • Experimental Design - A non-traditional narrative that invites curiosity.

  • Hang photos to dry in the order that best uncovers the story to you.

  • A short experience designed to be completed in half an hour.

A camera can capture what the eye can't see.
