No Sleep for Sole

No Sleep for Sole is a surreal survival horror game about mental illness and abuse. You play as Sole, a young boy traumatized by ongoing abuse and slipping into psychosis, as he runs to fend off the monsters in the shadows of his home each night until sunrise.

Sole’s story

The game follows a week in Sole’s life as his circumstances spiral and his mental illness escalates. Its short, detailed story explores the roots of that decline and has multiple endings. There is about an hour and a half of content.

Survive each night

Survival depends on juggling several mechanics and prioritizing the threats in each situation to plan a way out of tight spots. The game uses a dissociative, dream-like atmosphere rich in symbolism.
