A downloadable game for Windows

You wake up in the middle of the night in your modest apartment on the outskirts of the panel district.

Duration: 2-5 hours of gameplay

Inspired by post-Soviet life, VHS aesthetics and the feeling when even one's own apartment suddenly becomes someone else's.


The game explores themes:

  • loneliness
  • Recurring dreams
  • An alarming "deja vu"
  • post-Soviet decline and inner emptiness


🩸Game Features

  • 🔦The atmosphere of post—Soviet Russia is a real aesthetic of the late 90s: peeling walls of entrances, dim light of lamps, old furniture, VHS, disc phones.
  • A story with a double bottom is a confusing plot where the boundary between a dream and reality is blurred.
  • 👁️Elements of psychological pressure — the game does not frighten with screams, it gradually penetrates into consciousness.


  • A variety of locations — from a cramped apartment to a gloomy basement, an abandoned communal apartment.
  • An ending that stays with you — you won't just finish the game... you will help to find peace.

✍️The plot (without spoilers)

You are an ordinary person living alone. Something changes at night: events repeat themselves, space is distorted, and details that shouldn't be there float out of memory.


With each step you take, you are sinking deeper and deeper into a place where reality is becoming shaky. But what if there's not a monster in the middle of this maze, but... you?
