About

You wake up in a stairwell with endlessly looping floors of the same library. Return the forgotten book and stay alert for any changes to break free from the cycle.

How to Break Free from the Cycle:

  • Inspect the library for any changes, some may be book-related, while others just involve little changes in the library. Some are obvious, while others are more hidden.

  • Walk down the staircase if no anomalies are found, or walk up if you detect an anomaly.

  • Make the correct decision eight times in a row to break free.

This game is a small, atmospheric anomaly-finding experience with over 70+ different anomalies, similar to Exit 8, The Cabin Factory, or False Mall. It includes some horror elements and features book-related anomalies to match the setting. Complete a cycle or even finish the entire game by discovering every anomaly.

Gameplay Videos and Streaming

Feel free to publish gameplay videos or stream the game without contacting the developer.

If possible, I would appreciate it if you could include the URL to this store page in the description of your video.

Prevention of 3D Motion Sickness

The larger the game screen in relation to your field of view, the more likely you are to experience motion sickness. If you suffer from motion sickness, effective measures include switching to windowed mode and lowering the resolution, or physically distancing yourself from the monitor.

You can also adjust the following setting in-game:

- Disable head-bobbing
