Story gameplay trailer (English).

Wake alone in a dark mansion with no memory. Find a torch, fight back and uncover who you are across haunted places in a first-person horror campaign.

Upgrade your lights at the Machine. Solve puzzles, face boss encounters and survive enemies that hunt by sight and sound. Story mode plays fully offline.

Start on Easy or Normal. Finish on Normal to unlock No Save mode: one life, no saves, and a death restarts the story. New Game+ keeps your upgrades.

Also included: multiplayer

Fickle Allies is a first-person multiplayer thriller where alliances shift and trust never lasts.

The only things you can trust completely are your headlamp and the safe zones. Collect and deposit every crystal, then reach a safe zone to escape. First, you need to survive.

Play as a heartless killer, a trusted companion, a cunning thief, a loyal protector, a patient opportunist, a ruthless lone wolf or an unpredictable wildcard. Form groups to coordinate with other players, knowing that a group does not protect your crystals and that leaving one has lasting consequences.

In private matches with friends, attach scares to crystals and spring them on whoever collects the trapped crystal.
