About

Press one button. Regret it immediately. A bite-sized analog horror comedy made to be finished in minutes, streamed for reactions, or gifted to a friend as a tiny act of betrayal. Headphones strongly recommended. Friendship not guaranteed.

Story

A lone player faces an old monitor displaying a single invitation: START. With no instructions and no way to know what waits beyond the button, curiosity becomes the only path forward. One click begins a brief, unsettling encounter designed to end almost as soon as it starts.
