Über diese Demo

"Nikki… for fuck's sake… are you deaf?
Wake up…

Welcome to Nairhad — a sunken city that still breathes.
IT BEGAN is a single-player tactical horror shooter set in the ruins of a forgotten underwater megacity.

You wake up in silence. Alone… but not truly alone.
Fight a cult that worships the abyss.

Face creatures born of salt and madness.

And piece together the memory of a man you may no longer be.

Every corridor holds a secret.

Every shadow whispers.

And someone… — someone beneath the water… — is already waiting.

The city sleeps… but the water remembers.

Nairhad is more than just a place. It is a living grave.

You will walk through flooded corridors, abandoned halls, and crumbling monuments of a civilization that tried to forget itself.

Light is scarce. Oxygen is worth its weight in gold. And silence is deceptive.

Every place holds a secret.

Every step takes you deeper into the abyss.

Violence isn't always the answer. But silence… almost always is.

In IT BEGAN, victory belongs not to strength, but to cold-blooded composure.

You are not a soldier.

You are the last one who knows how to disappear.

Who were you before Nairhad swallowed you?

As you make your way through the ruins, you encounter fragments of your past: broken machines, forgotten recordings, hallucinations.

Memory distorts. Reality bends.

The truth isn't something you need to find.

You need to remember it.

You were never supposed to come back. But the cult remembers.

Fanatics lurk in the depths, guarding something ancient.

Monsters move through the shadows — born not of flesh, but of water, bone, and madness.

Every enemy has a meaning.

Every encounter comes at a price.

Someone wants you dead.

And someone… wants to wake you.

Find the answers. WAKE UP!!!
