About

Discover who you are before it’s too late in The Inpatient a PS VR Exclusive set in the Blackwood Sanatorium, over 60 years prior to the 2016 BAFTA award-winning Until Dawn.
With deep immersion that places YOU in the game, you take on the role of an amnesiac inpatient who must find out who you are and why you are in the Sanatorium. With a branching narrative, and different endings every choice you make can drastically affect the way the game plays out.
KEY FEATURES:
• Branching narrative - Choices and consequences are integral to the gameplay. Your life (and the lives of those around you), are dramatically affected by the decisions you make.
• Rich story/memories - The story isn’t just about scares you’ll discover a rich backstory and uncover a conspiracy. Vivid flashback memories that you discover throughout the game are key to understanding why you are in the Sanatorium.
• Deep immersion - This game puts YOU in the shoes of the main character. Thanks to the inclusion of voice control, gender choice and a fully realized body model – when you look down you see your legs, arms and hands – it feels like YOU are in the Sanatorium.

The Inpatient reviews and comments

While intellectuals praise the game (they try to look smart and unusual), I’ll say honestly: the game is beautiful, and that’s all. It’s short, it’s not challenging, it doesn’t have puzzles and enemies - in other words, it’s not a game. It’s a boring VR novel. 
One of the best psychological VR horror games right now. There’s no jump scares but the atmosphere is frightening and stamping. I think, this game is not for everyone. But if you patient (what an irony) enough to give this game time to get up to speed, you’ll be satisfied. It looks great, it tells an outstanding story, it scares - in other words, a must buy.
