About the game

It’s 2019. You brought home a strange yet familiar 1995 CD-ROM game from the thrift store. You vaguely remember seeing ads for this game, and some kind of controversy, but you never got the chance to play it. Until now.

Delve into a 90's FMV-inspired digital hellscape of dungeons and death with visuals, story and music from the creators of Home Safety Hotline.

Survive the horrors with bloodletting solitaire gameplay from the veteran indie team behind Shadowhand and Regency Solitaire.

Purchase upgrades from the friendly eye that watches you from the walls.

Uncover a variety of game-changing Jokers - some helpful, some malignant.

Uninstall the game before it's too late.
