A downloadable game for Windows and macOS

Trapped in an abandoned mine, can you trust what is real?

The Mine is a first person psychological survival horror game in which the player is trying to escape an abandoned mine housing Lovecraftian horrors while uncovering the horrifying secrets within.

As the player descends further into the mine, their character is afflicted with Temporal Madness and becomes unable to distinguish between the present, past, future, and the unreal. The player must figure out what is real in order to escape the mine, but they aren’t the only thing down here.

Thank you

love your game so good :):):)

Thanks. I'm glad you thought the monster is scary! I spent a lot of time on it.

cool short

Thanks!

Well executed game. 

The environment design and the creature  was great. It was creepy, but not scary as I expected it to be. The lantern light was not dim, it provided enough to make the atmosphere more tense. And, of course the "look back/pathway change" mechanics worked really well with this one. 

Overall, neat game. Congrats. Best of luck with the future developments. Cheers!
