WHY IS MY GAME GOOD FOR CONTENT?

  • High Chat Engagement: The game is a psychological horror mystery and "Spot the Difference" anomaly game. Your viewers will naturally want to back-seat and help you spot the anomalies in the room!
  • Great for Clips & Shorts: The horror is designed to be unpredictable. One minute a monster is rushing you in the hallway and the next, the room changes in creepy ways. This mix of sudden scares and quiet dread naturally creates fun & genuine reactions that your community can easily clip.
  • A Mystery to Solve: It's not just a basic horror game; there is lore behind it for you (& your chat) to solve!
  • Replayability: The Call Button features over 70 anomalies and has 2 different endings for you (& your chat) to experience! (+ an endless mode)

THE CALL BUTTON

A short, observation-based psychological thriller told across 3 distinct acts. You are trapped in a constantly changing hospital room. Your only way out: memorize your surroundings, spot over 70 terrifying anomalies, and survive 25 days. But the longer you stay, the worse your nightmares get. Why did you steal the intel? What was it?

Gameplay

Every day, you wake up in the exact same room. Memorize the original room and see if there have been any alarming changes today. There are no fights, and nowhere for you to hide...

You have two choices:

  • Take your medication if you spot an anomaly.
  • Hit the call button for your daily check-in if you're sure the room is safe.

Face Your Interrogation

Every few days, you get nightmares. Sit across the table from your former HR director in surreal, interactive nightmare sequences. Relive your career, your mistakes and the corporate espionage that put you in this hospital bed.

Key Features

  • Playable Prologue: Experience the incident. Start a seemingly normal shift at the office and steal the secret information that seals your fate.
  • A 3-Act Narrative: Survive 25 days of escalating terror as you uncover the mystery across 3 acts and over 70 unpredictable anomalies.
  • Story Nightmares: Relive past events and past mistakes in interactive nightmare sequences, guided by a cold HR executive. Why are these memories appearing?
  • Multiple Endings: The game features 2 endings based on your choices.
  • Endless Mode: Not in the mood for the story? Do you just want to enjoy the pure thrill of hunting anomalies? Then simply select the Endless Mode in the menu!
