Mandela Invasion: Alternates

Mandela Invasion: Alternates is a psychological horror game in which you play Joseph, an agent of the US Department of Temporal Phenomena. You are assigned to investigate an abandoned house in Mandela County, where an entire family has vanished without a trace. The county has seen thousands of disappearances and unexplained murders, and witnesses report seeing the missing among them, changed in subtle but unsettling ways.

Investigate the house

Explore the house, solve puzzles and try to escape with evidence. You must survive several nights without help, hiding from threats as you look for a way out. The story is also told through the Department’s classified VHS tapes, which reveal more about the anomalies.

Survive the threats

The Preacher, Adam Murray’s alternate and other threats stalk you. You can hide in closets to avoid them, and must use your exploration skills to handle dangerous situations.

Interact and escape

You manipulate objects directly by moving and holding the mouse to open doors, turn valves and perform other actions. There is no inventory system or cluttered UI: you carry what your two hands can hold, taking items around the house to solve puzzles and escape with evidence.
