Game.exe

Game.exe is set in 1999. You play as a young man who has bought his first computer from a used-goods store. It once belonged to Oliver, a game developer who died by suicide months earlier, leaving behind files that include a build of his most ambitious, unreleased project.

Explore the computer

You can explore the operating system, Oliver’s files and notes, and the game he left behind. You use the operating system’s resources to try to remove the files from your computer, but Oliver is proud of his creations and does not want anyone interfering with them.

Two layers of games

The game’s art recreates an old operating-system interface, with details and easter eggs. The game within the game uses the same aesthetic, with pixelated textures, limited-color rendering and a horrifying atmosphere.
