Published Time:2020
Story
You awaken with no memory, locked in a room with a corpse and a bomb set to explode in two minutes. No clues, no instructions—just the countdown and a growing sense of dread.
You must explore the room, find fragments of information, and piece together your past while desperately trying to disarm the bomb before it’s too late.
This game combines escape room mechanics with narrative immersion, challenging you to confront both danger and identity under pressure.
