About

Dread whispers echo across the Information Superhighway. Y2K is coming, heralding the rise of the Old Ones. With your meatspace mind unraveling, time is running out -- barter with gods, embrace the deathless aeons, or go offline permanently in this modempunk horror story.

From Fiction Factory Games

Creators of Arcade Spirits, Arcade Spirits: The New Challengers, and Penny Larceny: Gig Economy Supervillain comes a new experience in science fiction and horror, with a retro computer aesthetic.

Mind-Melting Y2K Horror, For Free

Yes, free. Just free. Not a "free prologue," not free to play, no battlepass, no microtransactions. It's just free thanks to the support of our community. The only currency you'll need to spend is your own sanity (and maybe a 90-hour free trial floppy disk for Carcosa Online).
