About Shadownest
Shadownest is an asymmetric multiplayer horror game set deep underground. Three scientists are stranded in a cave and must escape while a fourth player controls the monster hunting them. The game is multiplayer-only: you can start with one player, but cannot progress without teammates.
Escape the cave
As one of up to three scientists, you collect keys from the cave to reach the next area and gather eggs as research material. The monster pursues you throughout your escape. Your only defense is a flashlight that harms it, but its batteries can run out.
Hunt from the shadows
As the monster, you attack the scientists and defend your home. You can create walls in the environment to distract and separate them, while staying hidden to stalk your prey. Their light can repel you. A confidence bar fills as you hunt; when it reaches full, you become resistant to their light and can attack openly.
