The Town of Light is a first-person psychological horror adventure set in a former psychiatric hospital based on real events and places
The game has been Greenlit by the Steam community in few weeks and has been awarded in “Story & Storytelling” at the Game Connection in Paris.
You are a 16 years old schizophrenic girl. Your mind is a mess. You are there, alone with few memories, in the darkness, with your fears and loneliness. You don't know where you are, why you are there, who you are… You ask yourself “I'm sick, imprisoned, or…?” You can only feel that you are in one of the creepiest places in the world: the place of no return.
Renèe’s voice guides you in the game and through her eyes the player will live her story, her fears and her personal drama to never forget.
The player will try to recreate her personality, freely exploring the environment, finding documents, reliving her hallucinations.
The player can explore thousands of square meters inside the pavilions and dozens of hectares outside, faithfully recreated in 3D to shake the conscience and to immerse the player in an environment that led him to reflect on his own mental sanity. Oculus Rift adds a new dimension to the fear!
