STILL BOUND

A weekend trip. A mountain road. A forest that should not be this quiet.
At 23:04 the phone rings. Jon's friends have the weekend planned; all that is left is the drive up into the mountains. "And try not to get lost."

Hours later, Jon wakes in what is left of his car at the bottom of a wooded slope, alone. No signal. The road is far above, out of reach. So he does what anyone would do: he starts walking, looking for someone who can help.

The trails lead to places where people have been. An abandoned cabin. A campsite. An old fire lookout with a radio. Each one feels like rescue, for a while.

STILL BOUND is a story-driven, first-person psychological horror game about searching for help in a place that does not let people go.What awaits you
A forest that remembers. A journal, a receipt, notes scribbled on a trail map. Piece together what happened here from what others left behind. Nothing is explained for you.

Every shelter looks like safety. The fear is in finding out what each place really holds.

From daylight into night. The light changes as you go, from the midday forest to a burning sunset. And when night falls, the story is seen through other eyes: a bodycam, a narrow flashlight beam and a radio that answers less and less.

No combat. Jon is not a fighter. Look closer, listen, and know when to run.

Sound that finds you first. Voiced characters, a crackling radio and positional audio that tells you where something is before you see it.
