About the game

A first person melee horror game where you use rusty tools to brutalize a gang of serial torturers in the remote Appalachian Forest.

Gameplay

Use hammers, axes, pipes, 2x4s, box cutters, and more to brutalize anything that stands between you and freedom

When all else fails, the level itself can be a weapon. Kick props into enemies, or enemies into environment hazards.

Photograph gruesome murder scenes to fulfill your dark desires and regain lost health

Explore decaying farmhouses, collapsing factories, and seedy strip clubs in a forgotten corner of the Appalachian Forest

Background

A troubled loner with a hunger for cinematic gore finds himself on the other side of the camera when rumors of authentic snuff videotapes lead him to an abandoned cabin near Butcher's Creek, Pennsylvania. What starts as illicit urban exploration becomes a fight for survival when he's captured by a gang of sadistic killers. Now his only option is to pick up a box cutter, a hammer, a pickaxe, or whatever else is at hand, and unleash a little video violence of his own.
