Rakshas

From the Devs

THE PROLOGUE

Rakshas: Prologue is a standalone 20–40 minute vertical slice of the full game, built to give you a complete, self-contained horror experience. No filler, no padding every room has a purpose.

THE STORY

While searching for answers , you stumble across something that should have remained hidden. Waking up inside a jail cell , with no memory of how you got there. Following an echo from the lower levels, you find your friend trapped and it is upto you to save him.

CORE GAMEPLAY LOOP

Stealth-first encounters: A monster patrols the upper prison area, guarding what you need to help you escape. Armed with nothing but your wits you must find what you need and get out. 

Exploration & interaction: Search environmental objects to locate hidden keys and dolls needed to progress between areas.

Environmental puzzle-solving: The library has a secret upto you to figure out.
