A short Horror game about navigating a pitch-black urban environment, using limited sources of light.
As you make your way through an underground megastructure, you fall into an area with a long-lasting power outage. Your only way forward is to find a path towards the elevator, in the surrounding darkness, which will lead you to a higher level. Hopefully leading out of this place.
Tread the pitch black corridors of the structure, and try to find your way out.
Use various devices at your disposal, to illuminate the darkness.
Find the elevator and use it to travel from one floor to another.
Solve problems preventing your journey, and continue onwards.
Some levels contain collectible upgrades for the player characters.
