Between Dimensions Stands A Haunted Cathedral, Night‑Vision Flickers, Ghosts Lurk &amp; A Monster Awaits Beyond The Portal To Shatter Your Sanity.

<h2 class="bb_tag" >THE TEMPLE: CH1</h2>From the creators of Smart Games comes the first chapter of a new horror saga. In THE TEMPLE: CH1, you awaken alone within an impossibly vast and dark cathedral trapped in another dimension. You have no memory of how you arrived – only the distant echo of a portal that might be your only escape. Every step you take is drenched in dread, every shadow holds a secret, and every heartbeat feels like a countdown.<h2 class="bb_tag" >Core Gameplay</h2><ul class="bb_ul"><li>First-Person Horror Puzzle: Explore the endless, shadowed halls of a cathedral that seems alive with evil. Your goal is clear – find and activate the portal to escape. To do that, you’ll solve macabre puzzles hidden throughout the twisted architecture.</li><li>Night Vision Gameplay: Light is your enemy here. You only have a flickering night-vision device to pierce the inky darkness. Use it sparingly, or risk being engulfed by the void. The cathedral’s corridors and chambers loom around you, lit only by eerie glows or the pale green of night vision.</li><li>Supernatural Encounters: Ghostly whispers and unexpected shadows haunt every corner. Spirit-like apparitions flicker at the edge of your vision. Worse still, something monstrous stalks you in the darkness – a nameless horror that moves between the pillars and pews, its presence announced by distant, guttural growls. You must outwit this creature if you hope to survive.</li><li>Fear-Based Mechanics: THE TEMPLE: CH1 preys on psychological terror, not gore. The atmosphere is thick with tension: flickering lights, unsettling ambient sounds, and a feeling that something is always watching. There are no jump-scare cheap thrills here – only the slow burn of dread as you progress. Whenever you solve a puzzle or open a new door, the silence threatens to be broken by something unspeakable.</li><li>Compact Intensity: Despite its relatively short playtime (~1.5 hours), every minute is packed with fear. No handholding, no safe zones – just a relentless climb of suspense until you either find the portal or fall victim to the cathedral’s evil.</li></ul><h2 class="bb_tag" >Story</h2>You wake up on cold stone beneath a vaulted ceiling that disappears into darkness. The only light comes from distant torch flames and the faint glow of your night vision. Voices whisper in languages you almost understand. The air smells of decay and incense. You have one thought: Escape.As you move through the vast nave and narrow crypts, grotesque statues and faded murals hint at a nightmare religion that once thrived here. You find cryptic notes scrawled on prayer altars. Each puzzle solution reveals more of this place’s terrible secret. The ghosts of worshippers past seem trapped in endless prayer, reaching out to you with hollow eyes.A distant roar shakes the halls – you’re not alone. Somewhere in this cathedral-dimension, a monstrous predator hunts the living. You are its prey. Every corridor feels endless, every shadow hides a trap. Time loses meaning as reality blurs: are you creeping through ancient history, or across some twisted afterlife?THE TEMPLE: CH1 is only the beginning. As you piece together the mystery of this haunted cathedral, unsettling truths emerge. Who built this temple, and to what god are the invisible masses praying? Can you trust the portal when you find it, or will you step into an even greater horror?<h2 class="bb_tag" >Replayability &amp; Unique Experience</h2><ul class="bb_ul"><li>Shift and Repeat: THE TEMPLE: CH1 has multiple haunting events and hidden secrets to discover.
