Paranormal Archives

Paranormal Archives is a psychological horror game about finding a safe route through a shifting archive. You awaken in a circular hall surrounded by twelve identical corridors. Only one is real; the others are deceptions or traps. You must spot subtle anomalies and choose the corridor that feels normal. There is no combat and no monster chasing you, but every wrong turn resets your progress.

The growing archive

Each correct choice reshapes the world and adds an object to the central hall. As you progress, the hall transforms: the archive grows, a dome forms at its center, and documents emerge that hint at experiments, a captured seraph and a forbidden name. Inside the dome is an angel, broken and bound, tortured to reveal a name no one should hear.

Explore and observe

You move through twisting corridors, hidden alcoves and endless hallways. Shadows, flickers, misplaced objects and spatial inconsistencies can reveal which corridor is true. The environment loops and shifts, subtly altering places you revisit, so careful attention and memory matter. Sound design and environmental storytelling create the atmosphere.
