About This Game

THE WRONG WAY ROUND

Last night got a little out of hand. You and your friends had a great time. How great? Well... you don't remember much.

You wake up in a small cabin in the middle of nowhere, surrounded by empty bottles. The town outside is completely deserted, your phones are useless, and there doesn't seem to be a way out.

So there's only one thing left to do: GET HOME.

STICK TOGETHER

The town is empty. Explore it together, search the buildings, find food and supplies, and keep an eye on each other. When the fog rolls in, a light might be the only thing standing between you and the dark.

KEEP THE LIGHTS ON

The fog isn't just cold. It freezes everything it touches.

Keep the generators running as you search for clues. Once the lights go out, the fog takes their place.

FIND A WAY OUT

There has to be a way out. Somewhere.

Explore the strange, deserted town and search for clues. Read notes, inspect abandoned places, connect the dots and figure out what happened here. The town won't simply hand you the answers.

EVERYTHING IS USEFUL

Food, batteries, tools and whatever else you can find might make the difference between getting home and spending another night in the fog.

Search everywhere. You never know what might come in handy.

NEVER THE SAME WAY OUT

The clues and puzzles don't have to stay the same.

New mysteries, clues and solutions will appear over time, giving you a reason to come back and figure out a different way through the town.

Think you've solved it? Maybe you've just solved it this time.
