About The Vanishing
The Vanishing takes you to an abandoned town where time seems to have stopped. You explore its deserted streets, empty houses and forgotten diaries to discover what caused the once-thriving community’s sudden demise.
The town’s history
In the final days of the local mine, miners discovered ancient ruins and unearthed a woman’s body, preserved beyond the reach of time. Her spirit, consumed by rage and sorrow over the wrongs done to her in life, has awakened and haunts the town in search of vengeance.
Uncover the mystery
You navigate ghostly streets, decipher cryptic clues, solve puzzles and unlock secrets to piece together what happened. As you delve further into the mystery, you find that the town is not as empty as it seems. The spirit will not rest until every trace of life has vanished.
