Story

A girl awakens in a cold, damp morgue. Bloodstains, not yet dry, cling to the walls and floor, alongside unidentifiable chunks of flesh...

Grotesque moans from inhuman entities echo through the air.
In this research facility, warped by malice and roamed by otherworldly beings, you can run, hide, or use tools to try and escape...but a single mistake, and the girl’s body will be torn apart and reduced to a mangled heap...

Follow the trail drawn in blood and step into the source of this nightmarish aberration.

GAMEPLAY FEATURES

COHESIVE "LIVED-IN" WORLD
Scorn takes place in an open-ended world with different interconnected regions. Each region is a maze-like structure with various rooms and paths to discover. All the storytelling happens in-game, with no cut-scenes to distract you from the grisly reality of the living, breathing world you’re in. But keep your eyes open - the game won’t show you any sympathy if you miss something important on your uneasy travels.

FULL BODY AWARENESS
Players will experience better immersion being aware of the character’s body and movement. Interaction with the world is realistic - objects are picked up with your hands (instead of just floating in midair), machines and instruments are operated by grabbing the controls, etc.

Eclipsium is a first-person horror game where you play as the desperate Wanderer. In search of Her, his path leads through hellish tombs, cathedrals of flesh and even through space, immolating himself and sacrificing anything to achieve his goal.

Don’t stop

There is no safety or comfort in Eclipsium. Let the pale light guide you through, as every place hides its own path to escape.

Enter the spiral

Everything fades and senses dull in this endless darkness. But with you remains your power - a twisting, transmuting hand, ready to carve a way through whatever stands before you.

Find her

Her weak light, now little more than a whisper of a memory, pulls you forward. Even if it’s a lure, it remains your only hope inside the anguished eclipse.

Set in the densely cluttered streets of "Kowlong," filled with obscurity and chaos, this battle action-adventure game casts players as the "Hyoki," an entity devoid of memory and physical form. His only motive is to eradicate the monstrous beings known as "Slitterheads" crawling around the city, disguising themselves as humans.

Roaming the vibrant neon-lit cityscape, players must seek out allies among humans known as "Rarities," infiltrate and track dangerous organizations, and engage in battles harnessing the power of blood. As the suspenseful drama unfolds, delve into the mystery behind Hyoki's existence and the appearance of the Slitterheads.

Bodiless "Hyoki" Exposes the Demons Nesting in the Red Light District

The entity called "Hyoki" finds himself wandering amidst the chaos of Kowlong, plagued by the enigmatic monsters known as "Slitterheads" which mimic humans. Though bereft of all memories, he holds one resolute intention: to eradicate every last Slitterhead. Infiltrating the city, he sets out on a mission to hunt down the Slitterheads masquerading within human society.

Possession-based High Speed Action

Devoid of physical form, Hyoki's ability allows him to possess and control human bodies at will, turning the people wandering the city into his pawns. With this power he can slip through barriers, assume the identity of specific individuals, and infiltrate dangerous areas and organizations. By rapidly switching hosts, he can also traverse the city at high speed.

Thrilling Combat Using the Power of Blood

While human bodies are fragile, Hyoki can burn their life force, turning blood into weapons to confront the ferocious Slitterheads. Even when critically wounded, he can continue fighting by switching hosts efficiently. By possessing "Rarities", specific humans who share high sync with Hyoki, he is able to unleash even more powerful attacks and activate various abilities. The cooperative relationship with these "Rarities" holds the key to uncovering the deepening mysteries in the city of Kowlong.
