Overview:
The Archivist Demo offers a glimpse into the eerie and immersive world of analog horror. Step into the shoes of a journalist who stumbles upon a desolate wooden house tied to mysterious VHS tapes. Each tape you uncover transports you into a different, twisted reality — from abandoned hospitals to forgotten forests. With every recording watched, the house itself grows more alive... and more hostile.

This demo showcases the core mechanics and atmosphere of the full game: slow-burn psychological horror, exploration, puzzle-solving, and a unique VHS-glitch visual style. Your only tools are your flashlight, your courage, and your curiosity.

Design:
This demo highlights the foundational gameplay loop — finding tapes, watching them, and returning to the house as paranormal events intensify. It also gives players a taste of the game’s environmental storytelling, tension-building sound design, and visual presentation designed to evoke dread through minimalism and realism.

Localization:
The demo is currently available in English. Additional languages will be added in future updates.
