Ad Infernum

Ad Infernum is a horror game about surviving after a car crash leaves you stranded at a long-abandoned gas station in the desert. A voice on the radio calls to you from nearby, but remains just out of reach. Together, you uncover traces of a missing cult, unholy rituals and a mysterious cavern while bloodthirsty creatures hunt you. You can follow the cultist's path and attempt to complete their final ritual.

Protect your mind

Horrors wear down your psyche, tracked by a Nerve meter. As your grip on reality weakens, audiovisual hallucinations and other consequences begin to appear. These effects are wide-ranging and unscripted, so horrors can occur at any time.

Fight and scavenge

You can confront threats with guns and melee weapons, including hammers, nailguns, axes, baseball bats and shotguns. Every weapon can be upgraded. Supplies hidden throughout the world can be used as they are or broken down into raw materials for arcane transmutation; collected recipes unlock the ability to turn those materials into new items.

Hide and escape

You can avoid danger by keeping a low profile, making noise to create distractions or using the shadows to stay unseen. Flip switches or shoot out lights to gain an element of surprise, or turn the lights on to reveal what is in the darkness. When pursued, vault over barricades, slide under obstacles and climb to put distance between you and your pursuers.

Find another way

Problems can have several solutions. If you lack a key, you might find a hole in a wall, break a window, crawl through a hatch or climb a pipe. Emergent systems create further ways to approach encounters.
