You know, my dear, it isn't safe... To wander and creep while oh so weak. In the abandoned, the rotten, the decayed. Society has forgotten you; it won't lift a finger for that which is tossed away. You're just prey that the true prowlers who lay in shadows await to feast upon.

Achievements limited to the Windows PC version

Due to a technical limitation, the Steam Achievements for Red Haze are limited right now to the Windows PC version of Red Haze. The game is fully playable on Mac, but achievements unfortunately cannot be unlocked due to how they're handled. I'm sorry for the inconvenience.

About This Game

It isn't safe...


Falling into the dark pits of society, Rockette turned to drugs to give meaning to her miserable existence. Squatting in an old apartment complex, she finds herself at her last pump, and decides to venture from her shanty abode to locate her dealer, an older woman by the name of Aunti G. However, a creeping feeling takes hold; something is following her. A voice begins to talk to her from within the walls...

A semi-sequel to Close Your Eyes, something of a loose retelling of Little Red Riding Hood. Featuring a cryptic, surreal, and morbid story where not everything is as it seems, perception is important, and choice matters.

  • Something always watches you in the dark places of your mind; different people may perceive things differently.
  • A harrowing experience featuring an original soundtrack & art.
  • An unsettling and slowly-building atmosphere, paced to keep things interesting.
  • A cryptic and harrowing tale exploring the dark corners of society.
  • Voice acting that may be turned on or off.
  • Multiple endings, many secrets, and multiple pathways support replayability.

What soft skin you have, my child...

Mature Content Description

The developers describe the content like this:

Red Haze stars Rockette, a drug-addicted woman who is going off to meet her drug dealer as a core central plot point to the game. Drugs are mentioned quite often, both legal and illegal ones. The game contains violence, gore, and body horror. There's strong themes of prostitution and human trafficking. There's veiled nudity; the main character walks around naked in some scenes but they lack genital/nipples during such scenes. There's strong themes of depression, suicide, and struggling with mental health problems and loneliness. There is disturbing monster designs, and background characters we read about through notes with malicious intent to others. Red Haze is only really appropriate for audiences over the age of 18.
