13 Steps

13 Steps is a horror time-loop game set in the EOS Complex. You hide and evade rogue automated security bots while uncovering the facility’s mysteries and finding a way out. The bots move only when you do, and you have a limited number of steps before the loop restarts.

The step limit

Every step counts down toward zero. You must solve the facility’s mystery before you run out; when the loop resets, you return to where you began but keep your items and knowledge.

Evade the security bots

You can peek around corners, hide in lockers and stay out of the bots’ line of sight. As you acquire tools and learn how they behave, you can use that knowledge to plan your escape. Shadow Step technology lets you move instantly between points, including from cover to cover or to places you might not otherwise reach. Its uses are limited each loop, so you need to choose when to use it.

The fate of EOS

Messages and clues in the halls reveal the facility’s intentions and what happened there. How you escape determines the fate of the facility and the people you leave behind.
