The Developer Says...

Tales Beyond the Tomb is a psychological horror anthology inspired by disturbing real-life cases, each episode a self-contained nightmare with its own cast, tone, and aesthetic. Dive into short, intense stories where fear hits fast — and stays with you.

Tales Beyond The Tomb: Route 86

Five friends hit the road in search of fun, freedom… and maybe a little trouble. But an unexpected stop takes them to a remote location, where evil doesn’t just lurk in the shadows — it wears human skin.

Inspired by cult trash horror films from the '80s and '90s, Route 86 plunges players into a bloody, nerve-wracking night full of tension, chases, violence, and desperate decisions.

GAMEPLAY

Route 86 is a first-person narrative experience with a focus on exploration, stealth, and psychological immersion. The game is structured in short chapters, switching perspectives between different members of the group as they face the horrors of the night.

Microphone input can be enabled, letting enemies hear your real-life breathing and voice — if you dare.
