Mateus sought an end, but found the beginning of a nightmare. After his suicide, he awakens in the Umbral: a hostile spiritual dimension inspired by Spiritism and Umbanda. A first-person atmospheric psychological horror journey where death is far from the final rest.
Mateus, a young adult crushed by the weight of life, made the final decision in search of peace. But the silence he expected never came. Instead, he opened his eyes in a much worse place: the Umbral.
"Umbral" is a first-person atmospheric psychological horror experience focused on a dense narrative. It's not about cheap jumpscares, but the suffocating weight of being in a reality where you are not welcome, facing the consequences of your own actions.

Inspired by the beliefs of Kardecist Spiritism and Umbanda, the game explores a hostile spiritual dimension inhabited by pain and regret. Mateus must navigate this frightening reality, questioning why his final rest was denied, only to quickly realize that there are greater cruelties here than in the world of the living.

This game deals with extremely heavy and mature themes that may be distressing or act as triggers for some players. The central narrative directly addresses depression and suicide. The experience also contains depictions of physical torture and psychological violence. Strong player discretion is advised.
