About this game

Tezcatlipoca is a third-person horror game inspired by genre classics with “tank” controls, such as Alone in the Dark, Silent Hill, and Resident Evil. However, unlike those titles, combat is not a core mechanic — the focus here is on exploration, puzzle-solving, and a chilling atmosphere.

The game aims to capture the essence of a simpler era in horror gaming:

  • Dialogues with exaggerated voice acting,

  • Stories uncovered through scattered notes and environmental details,
    And a dark, confusing narrative open to interpretation — like a low-budget B-horror movie.

  • The entities, myths, and apparitions are inspired by Mexican folklore, offering a unique horror experience deeply rooted in local legends.

Story

Minerva returns to her hometown, Tezcatlipoca, after receiving a mysterious phone call. Her family hasn’t answered any messages or calls. Worried and confused, she takes the last bus to the village... but after falling asleep, she awakens in a nearly abandoned town shrouded in unsettling fog.

Now trapped in a place forgotten by time, Minerva must decide:
Will she dive into the shadows of the past, or escape before it’s too late?

Features

  • Retro style with tank controls.

  • Inspired by Mexican horror legends.

  • Fragmented narrative: you decide what to believe.
