Paranox

Paranox is a single-player survival horror game in which you play a paranormal researcher investigating an abandoned school. You explore its haunted, twisted labyrinth for clues to uncover its secrets while avoiding creatures that have emerged in response to your presence. You must survive as you search, and the creatures grow more relentless as you learn more.

Explore the school

You navigate labyrinthine rooms and long, dark corridors, using the environment, spatial awareness and strategy to evade creatures. You can move through vents and hide in lockers, but no area is safe. Each creature has its own way of sniffing you out, and no two playthroughs unfold the same way.

Collect clues and items

Your research requires collecting 10 notes and the 10 items corresponding to them. Picking up a note marks the location of its item on your map; until you collect that item, all other notes disappear. Creatures will try to stop you from completing the search.

Creatures and difficulty

Notes, items and creatures spawn in different locations, and creatures follow distinct paths. Some choose their own routes, some work together and others stay on your tail. You can choose from three difficulty levels: Casual, Normal and Impossible.

Speedrun timer

The game includes a speedrun timer, with runs to attempt on each difficulty level.
