Try to escape by collecting vital clues and find out what is going on. Trenches is a psychological horror game - where your only escape is through your senses and hearing using your trench whistle to guide you, however that also comes at a price since the enemy can hear your trench whistle. Enemies will also be able to hear if you walk on wood as it will make creaking noise or if you break any bottles. Try to escape the trenches with caution as every corner that you will turn can be your last. The game relies on sounds and hearing, as you are equipped with a 'Trench Whistle' which you can use. When it's used, it will play a sound and you need to follow the sound, however - you have to be careful as the enemy can hear the whistle too and it can give out your position easily. A HARDCORE objective-finding type first-person psychological horror survival game experience about finding and collecting clues with the goal to escape the Trenches, with gut-wrecking moments and different clue locations with repeatability option.















1. Crouch and stay low, so enemies won't hear you. 2. Hide under bunk beds or narrow spaces and stay safe. 3. Don't run or you will make noise. Run only when necessary. 4. Be careful when walking on wooden surface since it makes loud noise. 5. You can cause a distraction by throwing objects items such as bottles. 6. Mind your stamina, if you get tired then you cannot outrun your enemies. 7. Use your trench whistle if you're lost and follow the sound, but be careful because enemies can hear the whistle too and come running to your location. 8. Be careful of your surroundings. Some things are real, while others are not. 9. If you hear running foosteps, that's not good news - as they may have heard you. Run or hide!
