$9.99CASE: Animatronics Survive the dark precinct
A detective trapped in his own police station: the power is out, the doors are locked, and an anonymous hacker has sent machines hunting through the dark. A first-person stealth horror where you watch cameras on a tablet, hide in closets and listen for metal footsteps. Short, tense and mean.

Survive the night by hiding, listening and running
You are Detective John Bishop, working late. A call from an old "friend" pulls you out of a strange dream, and from there the night turns into a hunt. The electricity is off, every exit is locked, and animatronics patrol the halls with red eyes shining from dark corners.
Your tools are humble: legs, a torch and a tablet showing the security cameras. Check a feed, learn where the machines walk, then move. When one gets close, you slip into a closet or cabinet and try to breathe quietly while metal shifts a few steps away. The animatronics are built to surprise you, so plans fall apart fast, and a calm route can end in a sprint for the nearest hiding spot.
A mystery told through the station itself
Someone is behind this, and the game never hands you the answer. You explore the police department for explanations: notes scattered around the building, keycards and small items that open the next locked door, objectives like restoring power at a fuse box. The story of revenge unfolds as you piece it together, and the world expects you to pay attention. Listening matters as much as looking, because changes in the station often announce themselves by sound before you see them.
The dark, grim tone carries it: gloomy corridors, unsettling sound design and a hacker's voice on the phone turning your search for the truth into a fight to survive until morning.
