Welcome to the world after the Blackout.

The year is 2005. Civilization collapsed after a global energy blackout.

What remains of humanity now hides underground, sealed inside bunkers to escape the horrors roaming the surface.

You are R2-P23H, an autonomous maintenance unit assigned to Bunker 01, buried deep within a forgotten forest.

A disembodied voice gives you orders through a flickering monitor.

But the forest... seems alive.

There’s something out there. Something that listens. Something that doesn't want you here.

Survive this first-person psychological horror experience.

Explore a decaying post-apocalyptic world.

Solve twisted puzzles.

Avoid what moves through the fog.

And uncover the truth about who you are... or what you've become.

Are you just a machine?

You were made to obey. To maintain. To survive.

But the forest remembers something you've forgotten.

You dream.

You hesitate.

You hear your name when no one speaks.

And deep down... you know you shouldn’t.
