Psycho

The light keeps you safe. It won't stay on. A killer waits in the dark, and every few seconds, the room you're standing in goes black. Relive the same cursed night, loop after loop, until you uncover who really destroyed your family or the darkness swallows you first.

THE LIGHT IS THE ONLY RULE

You are Eli. You are standing in a house that will not let you leave. Every time you reach the door, the night resets, the same hallway, the same shadows, the same dread. But the house is not your biggest problem.

The lights are.

Every few seconds, the room you are in goes dark. And in the dark, something hunts you. Stay in the light and you are safe. Step into the dark, or let the light abandon you, and it will find you. This is not a game about exploring a haunted house at your own pace. It is a race, solve the loop's puzzles before the light shifts, or face what lives in the shadows.

IT CAN ONLY HUNT YOU IN THE DARK:

A killer stalks every loop. He does not break down doors or charge through the light. He waits. He listens. He exists only where the darkness reaches, which means the moment your room goes black, he already knows where you are.

You have no weapons. But you are not completely helpless. Glass bottles are hidden throughout the house. Use one to stun him and slip away. Or, if he gets too close, smash it against his face and run.

EVERY LOOP HIDES A TRUTH:

Eli knows something is wrong. He just cannot remember what. Through radio broadcasts, torn pages, and cassette tapes locked behind each loop, the story of his family slowly surfaces, his wife Mara, his son Liam, and the neighbor who was always a little too close.

But the killer is not just hunting Eli's body. He is hunting his mind. With every loop, Eli's grip on reality slips further. By the time you reach the truth, you will not be sure Eli deserves to know it.

FEATURES:

• Light or Die: Your only protection is the light. It shifts every few seconds. Plan your moves or lose everything.

• 15 Loops, 4 Acts: Each act pushes Eli deeper into madness. The house reveals more. So does he.

• A Killer Born from Darkness: He cannot reach you in the light. Which makes every blackout a countdown.

• Fight Back When Cornered: Bottles are your only tool. Stun him, escape him, or put him down long enough to run.

• No HUD. No Waypoints: The story lives in the world. Pay attention, or miss everything.

• Psychological Descent: Four states of mind across four acts. Eli starts stable. He does not end that way.

• 15 Languages: Full interface localization including Arabic.

Inspired by P.T. Psycho delivers what that hallway promised, a loop that means something, a killer with rules, and a story that earns its ending."
