About

Trapped by a dark entity within a cursed television broadcast, you must survive its sinister lineup of puzzles, layered with multiple shades of horror, and face impossible decisions.

Encounter or impersonate other survivors through a branching story where your mastery of the TV's controls determines who escapes to freedom.

All the while, reality and television signals bleed into one another.

IMMERSIVE GAMEPLAY

Play by manipulating virtual TV dials and buttons. Navigate through dials, switch between channels trying to look for some hints, solve puzzles, and directly change how the story unfolds and new channels unlock.

SURVIVORS' FATE RESTS IN YOUR HANDS

Every survivor's fate rests in your hands. Your choices carve diverging paths through a branching narrative with multiple endings, where no two runs are ever the same. 

Characters, set pieces, secrets, and channels interlock to surface a deeper, hidden story, while backtracking opens missed encounters, new routes, and undiscovered frequencies.

A SHIFTING ANTHOLOGY OF NIGHTMARES

While all the programs tie back into solving one overarching cursed mystery, throughout the experience, the broadcasts evolve into a shifting anthology of nightmares, each inspired by a different horror subgenre, reflecting its own personality, ranging from the gritty, heavy-inked shadows of a slasher to the muted, grainy textures of atmospheric folk horror with a visceral, graphic novel aesthetic.
