The doors...they need to be opened, so that you may close them for good. I leave myself and the dealings of this nightmare to you.  <video class="bb_img" autoplay muted loop playsinline poster="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/3214900/extras/33d11ff32f9091d448ab3a60165ad194.poster.avif?t=1761836836" width=600 height=326 ><source src="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/3214900/extras/33d11ff32f9091d448ab3a60165ad194.webm?t=1761836836" type="video/webm; codecs=vp9"><source src="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/3214900/extras/33d11ff32f9091d448ab3a60165ad194.mp4?t=1761836836" type="video/mp4"></video> <img class="bb_img" src="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/3214900/extras/b922ffeccfc9f03132b671e3415f6f62.avif?t=1761836836" width=600 height=100 /> In this first-person psychological horror game, you find yourself trapped in a nightmare filled with strange sights and oppressive monsters.
