Tietoa pelistä

Year 2125.

Capital punishment still exists — but it has been rebranded.

For humanitarian reasons, executions are no longer carried out in prisons or public facilities.
They now take place in luxury residential apartments, designed to provide comfort, normality, and dignity during the final hours.

You are placed inside one of these apartments.

No guards.
No visible sentence.
No explanation.

Only a space designed to observe how you behave when you believe nothing matters anymore.

🔹 The Game

Dead Man Waiting is a short, first-person narrative experience focused on everyday actions.

You will:

• wash dishes

• sort trash

• organize food

• restore order after small accidents

None of these actions are neutral.

Every movement, hesitation, mistake, and correction is silently recorded by an unseen system of judgment.

You are never told how well you are doing.
You are never shown a final score.

The apartment reacts.
The atmosphere changes.
You begin to understand.

🔹 The Judgment

There is no visible judge.

Instead, the game communicates approval or disapproval through:

• subtle visual feedback

• environmental reactions

• restrained sound design

• brief, impersonal confirmations

The system does not reward you.
It registers you.

🔹 Structure

• A contained, realistic apartment

• A series of interactive domestic tasks

• Minimal UI, no tutorials

• A final evaluation that is never explicitly explained

Estimated playtime: 15–30 minutes
Multiple endings are influenced by your behavior.

🔹 What it is not

• Not a horror game

• Not a puzzle game in the traditional sense

• Not a score-based experience

• Not an action game

This is a psychological, observational experience.

🔹 For Who

• Players who enjoy narrative-driven, atmospheric games

• Fans of dystopian or speculative fiction

• Players who appreciate ambiguity and interpretation
