🩸 About This Game

You wake in an abandoned psychiatric ward. The halls loop endlessly, the lights fail without warning, and something in the dark remembers you.

Explore a handcrafted, looping asylum in this first-person psychological horror. Use your flashlight to search for clues, unlock new areas, and survive the entity that stalks you. Every step forward brings you closer to uncovering the truth, and the past you tried to forget.

Features:
– Atmospheric first-person exploration with tense, claustrophobic environments
– Looping level design that changes as you progress
– Flashlight mechanics that reveal and conceal danger
– Lore-rich environmental storytelling
– Cinematic horror presentation with unsettling audio design

You awaken in a rotting asylum.
No direction. No answers. Just walls that hum and shadows that stretch too long.

Something is watching.
And it remembers you.

This place remembers you.
But you don’t remember it.
Not yet.

🎮 What You’ll Experience

✔️ First-person psychological horror: No combat, no handholding

✔️ Navigate a looping, handcrafted asylum filled with tension and dread

✔️ Flashlight mechanics where light is both lifeline… and liability

✔️ A fear-based entity that evolves the more you uncover

✔️ Ten patient profiles; each distorting your memory and the world around you

✔️ Minimal UI, immersive sound, and no checkpoints

✔️ A standalone game in a four-game psychological horror anthology

The ward doesn’t change.
But something in it does.

Every file you find distorts the feeling of the space - subtly.
Light flickers.
Paths feel less certain.
Whispers twist.

And always, the thing hunting you grows closer.

Some truths were meant to be buried.
Some sins were never yours to dig up.
But you keep going - deeper into the walls… and into yourself.

You won’t find checkpoints.
You won’t find forgiveness.

You’ll find a door that wasn’t there before.
And behind it - something that feels like a memory.
Or a warning.

🔥 The Forgotten Ward

Ashes of the Damned: The Forgotten Ward is a psychological horror game about guilt, memory, and the consequences that never stay buried.

This isn’t about survival.
It’s about what you remember.
And what won’t let go.

You didn’t just end up in the ward.
You were always meant to return.

The Forgotten Ward doesn’t want you here…
But it remembers you.

A complete, standalone game.

The Forgotten Ward is the first in a planned anthology of psychological horror — each game tells a different story in the same haunted universe.
