About This Game

Keep the fire lit. Keep your eyes open. The moment you look away, it’s closer.

A Sister's Search

When her brother's hiking group vanishes without a trace, Astrid follows their last known steps into an uncharted cave—only to find herself trapped in a forgotten valley. To find him, she must survive the nights. And in this valley, looking away is the deadliest mistake you can make.

Key Features

  • Survive the Nights: Tend to your campfire. Gather wood, manage your fuel wisely, and keep the flames roaring through the pitch black. If the fire dies, the darkness closes in.

  • Never Look Away: The creature only moves when you aren't watching. But every second you keep your eyes on it, your vision blurs, colors distort, and your grip on reality slips. Eventually, you'll have to look away. You may survive the first three encounters—but not the fourth.

  • Trust Nothing: The valley wears away at your senses. Invisible footsteps, distant whistles, ringing bells, and familiar places that slowly change make every night more uncertain than the last.

  • Escape the Valley: Explore the forgotten valley, restore power to its abandoned grid, and uncover a way back before the nights claim you.
