About This Game

The Anomaly Detective is a first-person psychological mystery that will make you question everything you see. You arrive at the hotel for a routine investigation… but this place is not normal. Reality bends. Objects shift. And somewhere in these corridors, one of six people is hiding the truth.

CLOSE YOUR EYES. THE TRUTH STAYS.

When something feels wrong, close your eyes (B Key). Wait in the dark. When you open them again, the hallucinations vanish… but the real anomalies remain. Photograph them. They are your only solid evidence.

KEEP YOUR SANITY

The pressure builds fast. Your mind starts to crack. Light a cigarette, steady yourself, and keep searching before the hotel twists your perception any further. Just like the old-school detectives…

A DETECTIVE GAME WITH REAL CONSEQUENCES

This is not just anomaly hunting. It’s a full deduction experience:

  • Read briefings from your colleague Cole and start each day with purpose.

  • Spy on the residents through half-open doors — no face-to-face talks, only quiet observation.

  • Pin every photo and clue to your detective board. The game never tells you the answer. You decide.

6 SUSPECTS. MULTIPLE ENDINGS. YOUR DECISION.

The Anomaly Detective never hands you the truth. It only gives you the evidence. Who you accuse depends entirely on how you interpret what you’ve seen and photographed. Trust your eyes… or question them.

A focused, atmospheric experience designed for one intense session — with enough depth and alternate endings to pull you back for another run when you start doubting your first conclusion.

A NOTE FROM THE DEVELOPER

This is a solo-developed game. My goal was to create a tight, immersive mystery rather than a long open-world title. There are nearly 30 anomalies to discover and several possible endings. For the strongest atmosphere I recommend playing it in one sitting — then returning later with fresh eyes if you want to chase different conclusions.

Thank you for stepping into this uncanny hotel. I hope it stays with you.
