The Developer Says...

In 2001, you were taken. And somehow, you survived.
Over two decades later, you return to the place that should have stayed buried: Stanley’s World.

Once a cheerful drop-off nursery for children—where parents left their kids while they ran errands or went to work—it was abruptly shut down in 2001, just days after a string of mysterious disappearances... and the world changed forever.

Now it’s quiet. Empty. Almost.

🕹️ Stanley Says is a first-person puzzle horror game set in the decaying remains of a once-trusted childcare center. Piece together the twisted history of Harvey Lamon, the man behind the madness, and Stanley, the smiling mascot who never really left.

💀 Features:

  • Explore eerie environments dripping with corrupted childhood nostalgia

  • Solve dark puzzles to unlock doors, secrets, and memories long forgotten

  • Follow Stanley’s rules… or face the consequences

  • Uncover disturbing lore through notes, tapes, and objects frozen in time from 2001

“Stanley says… don’t look behind you.”

You’re not a kid anymore.
But Stanley doesn’t care.
