Sanguine

Sanguine is a survival horror game set in the ruined town of Craven Oaks. You play as Kris, a survivor pulled from a car wreck with no memory of who she is. As she scavenges, fights and solves puzzles, she pieces together her past and the events behind the nightmare before the Bloods consume everything.

Story

Craven Oaks has been torn apart by a nightmare born from AlTran Corporation’s shadowy experiments. Led by the enigmatic Dr. Gabriel Altran, the company hides dark secrets beneath its pursuit of innovation. Kris encounters other survivors along the way, some allies and some threats; her choices and alliances can mean the difference between survival and assimilation.

The Bloods are hive-minded parasites that seize human hosts and twist them into relentless, monstrous forms. The town itself is dangerous, from the quiet diner where the story begins to abandoned streets, sewer tunnels and the looming AlTran headquarters. Each place holds dangers and revelations.

Explore and survive

You scavenge, craft and manage your inventory, where every bullet counts. You can use and upgrade weapons ranging from knives and pistols to SMGs, shotguns and rifles. Intricate puzzles, environmental storytelling and chilling encounters help you unravel the mystery.

A journal tracks objectives, side tasks and discovered clues, as well as Kris’ changing thoughts. You can also find live-action VHS tapes, filmed in real life and spliced into the game, to uncover hidden truths. Cinematic cutscenes and an original soundtrack accompany the story.

Gameplay modes

You can play from two perspectives: Classic uses fixed camera angles, tank controls and low-poly visuals, while Modern uses a third-person, over-the-shoulder view. The game also has two interwoven campaigns, each with a unique story told from a different perspective across the same haunting events.

Survivor Stories is a replayable Arcade challenge with strict time limits, randomized layouts, shifting objectives and character-specific loadouts. Global leaderboards track player ranks in both modes.
