About This Game

The war never ended; it just moved indoors.

Welcome to the Del Bono Naval Retirement Home, a decaying sanctuary for those the world has chosen to forget. You are Coral, a nurse who answered a simple job advertisement seeking a caregiver for veterans of the high seas. But as the heavy doors of the reception lock behind you, you’ll quickly realize that "duty" in this facility means much more than administering medicine.

A Shifting Reality

Under the iron-fisted rule of Admiral del Bono, the facility operates with military precision during the day. But when the sun sets, the walls of the retirement home bleed rust and seawater. The line between the corridors of the clinic and the claustrophobic hull of a sinking battleship blurs, forcing you to navigate the literal manifestations of the patients' most harrowing war traumas.

The Weight of Abandonment

Every patient in the Del Bono facility has a story—and an anchor dragging them into the abyss. Explore the deeply personal and surreal nightmares of naval veterans who have been cast aside by society. From the pressurized silence of submarine warfare to the chaotic fire of deck-side combat, you must witness their past to survive your present.

Trust Your Eyes, Not the Staff

Meet Terry, the facility's receptionist, whose cheerful professional mask hides a disturbing indifference to the paranormal phenomena surrounding her. When the lights flicker and the screams begin, you are on your own. Why are the handles rattling? Who is knocking behind the reinforced steel doors? And what is the Admiral truly demanding from his "crew"?

KEY FEATURES

  • Atmospheric Psychological Horror: Immerse yourself in a dread-filled environment where the sound design—from creaking metal to sonar pings—is your only warning.

  • Surreal Environmental Storytelling: Witness the facility transform as you delve into the PTSD-fueled nightmares of the residents, blending 1950s Americana with grim maritime terror.

  • Narrative-Driven Exploration: Piece together the mystery of the Admiral's facility through found documents, recorded logs, and the haunting phosphorescent messages left by those who came before you.

  • The "Shift" Loop: Experience the chilling contrast between the eerie "normality" of your nursing duties and the sanity-defying horrors that emerge during the night shift.

  • A Mature Tale of Duty: Explore the dark side of military service and the tragic reality of how society treats its veterans once their "usefulness" has expired.
