HORROR ADVENTURE

CURSED CASTLE PUZZLE & ESCAPE

A top-down puzzle horror game set in a haunted medieval castle. Collect three pieces of a key to open the locked door and escape. The castle is filled with enemies that can hear you—making noise attracts them. Stay silent too long and your vision slowly fades; speak into the microphone to restore it, but doing so can alert the horrors. Survive by balancing sound and silence, avoid enemies, and find every key piece before you're caught.

Speak to See, Stay Quiet to Hide

A dark fantasy horror adventure set in a haunted medieval castle. Explore treacherous corridors, solve ancient puzzles, and face supernatural entities as you uncover the castle's cursed secrets.

If the player does not speak into the microphone, her vision slowly decreases. To restore vision, she must talk—but doing so can alert the enemies. To survive, the player must balance speaking and staying quiet, avoid enemies, and collect all three key pieces before getting caught.
