About This Game

Dead Stop is an anthology of short horror games - an episodic experience inspired by classic horror stories.
No Vacancy is the first episode.

Nancy, a hard-edged investigative reporter with nicotine stains on her fingers and a nose for lies, was burning rubber toward the nowhere town of Crestfall to dig into an arson that smelled like insurance money and revenge.

But she took a wrong turn and ended up on a long road with no road signs and no GPS signal.

That's how she rolled up on the Paradise Motel just as the last smear of daylight bled out.

Nancy’s big break might be waiting behind one of those doors.

Or maybe it's something more insidious...

One night. One motel. No escape.

• Environmental puzzles built around the motel's dark history

• A story told through objects, not cutscenes

• Retro aesthetic inspired by 80s slasher films

• Short and complete. No filler, no padding
