Checked In

About this game

Checked In is a psychological horror game set in an old coastal hotel in Spain, where isolation and unease slowly take hold.

The gameplay is a first-person, story-driven walking simulator focused on exploration, environmental storytelling, and subtle interactions. Players uncover the narrative by observing their surroundings, piecing together clues, and engaging with objects that all serve a purpose.

Features

  • Single unified interface system central to all player interactions

  • Highly interactive environment with nearly all objects usable or inspectable

  • Exploration-driven design that rewards attention to detail

  • Environmental storytelling through audio, visuals, and subtle cues
