Pixelsplit and Daedalic Entertainment have announced that the creepiest carnival ever will appear in REVEIL when it launches later this year. Fans looking for horror fun ahead of that nebulous release date will be happy to hear that a short demo will be available during Steam Next Fest. Players can try out the psycho-thriller starting Monday, October 9th. According to developers, the demo will allow players to experience the sights and sounds of “this psychological horror, first-person narrative, and puzzle game.”
Ahead of the demo’s release next Monday, developers showcased gameplay and shiver-worthy environments in a new trailer.
The game puts players in the shoes of Walter Thompson’s worst memories and experience the “decaying labyrinth of his mind” while solving puzzles based on his life at a 1980s circus. That’s about as terrifying as it gets and should send delightful shivers down any player’s back.
Once caught in the maelstrom of deceptive impressions, memory fragments, and mysterious visions, your only option is to dive deeper – hoping to find answers to your perplexing situation and condition, even if this hope is slowly fading. The only thing that keeps you from giving up is the will to find Martha and Dorie. Do not shut your eyes to the hints left by the two, but keep them wide open and … try not to lose your mind.
Features include
- A deeply psychological experience that will keep you questioning everything.
- Five playable acts in different, carefully designed environments.
- First-person narrative experience including:
- Various puzzles and riddles
- Beautiful and immersive visual experience #madewithunity
- Multi-layered narrative with psychedelic, biographical and disturbing elements
- Atmospheric paintings, posters, writings referring to the circus era of the 60s.
Check out the REVEIL Steam page and get ready to visit the creepiest carnival ever.
