Paralysing Obscurity
Paralysing Obscurity
Each night, you wake to find him at the edge of your bed. He doesn’t speak -not at first. He watches. Waits. Inches closer each time the world slips away again. Is this being, Erebus, a figment of exhausted nerves, or something far more real?

This was very fun to play! I love that the diary at the beginning later came up in the story. The art is really polished, I especially loved the UI - the eyes for the hovering of choices were such a fun detail, and in general it gives off this very mystical vibes without coming off as cutesy. Really lovely game!
