You play as a former test subject trapped in HEKTOR, an abandoned covert research facility beneath northern Greenland. After years of confinement and torture, you must make your way through its dark corridors and try to escape.
Explore the facility in first person, using a lighter and flashlight to see. Corridors can change as you move, altering the route ahead or the path you came from; cryptic clues and notes help you find your way and uncover the facility’s past.
Search for items that advance your escape and pills that keep your psychosis from worsening. A persistent monster hunts you, while other creatures can alert it to your presence, so navigating the shifting environment also means avoiding danger.
Reviews describe an unsettling atmosphere and shifting corridors as memorable parts of the horror experience, with some players also appreciating the story and presentation. Others found the story or objectives hard to follow and progression tedious; reports of technical problems also appear in the sample.
