Out of the Shadows is an online cooperative horror escape game for 2–4 players. You explore unsettling locations, solve puzzles and try to escape from places whose hostile inhabitants do not want you there. Each map has its own setting, escape-game storyline, puzzles and threats.

Explore and escape

Search rooms, interact with the environment and piece together what happened in each location. The game has no inventory system: when an object matters, you handle it directly, picking it up, moving or throwing it, or using it where a puzzle requires.

Puzzles can involve counting objects, decoding strange symbols, manipulating light or using your voice. Some challenges divide the team or give players different information: one player might see a solution while another acts on it, or one may be trapped while teammates look for a way to free them.

Work together

Progress depends on the group. Players may be separated, trapped or given different clues, so you communicate information, guide teammates from a distance and coordinate actions. Making too much noise, becoming isolated or losing focus can be fatal; cooperation is necessary to get out.

Face the threats

Hostile inhabitants make it clear that your team does not belong in their locations. Ambience, sound, lighting, unsettling environments and jump scares build tension, where separation and mistakes can be fatal.
