Following a promise of the ultimate expression of freedom, you find yourself at the Headless Rave Festival. However, that freedom comes at a cost as the organisers announce that the price of admission is the lives of all attendees.
Find a way to escape, even as the forest itself appears to work against you. Try to maintain a grip on reality while logic takes a backseat. And whatever you do, stay away from the sinister presence in the darkness.
Can you make your way out without losing yourself?
- Classic survival horror through a psychedelic rave lens
- Macabre puzzles following twisted logic
- In-game smartphone mechanic that helps you locate points of interest and consult the numerous attendees for help

Admittedly a little pricey for the length of the game, but it's totally worth it. An incredibly interesting horror experience. I first bought my friend this game 2 years ago and watched him play and it stuck with me until I finally caved and bought it myself. I wanted to get to the ending of the game to relive the final portion, only to accidentally stumble upon an entirely different ending with an entirely different perspective.
Absolutely buy it if it's on sale, but I'd still say it's worth it at full price.

Fun, although a little short. I'm glad I got it on sale, because the full price tag seems high. Though it's implied there are multiple endings to the game, I'm not sure I'll jump back in to discover them.
There is a lot of open endedness to the game, and having to explore to figure out what to do next. Which while not bad, I never had a sense of urgency or the build up of any tension. The enemies you can find wandering around were easy enough to dodge, and the other enemies appeared to be scripted to 'win' and send you back to a checkpoint. I know it's not that type of a game, but maybe being able to crouch and hide and to sneak around the rave.
Also, more puzzles and riddles! It felt more like a walking sim with a puzzle here or there.
No spoilers but also a lot of exposition at the end could have been integrated better.
All in and a decent game but I'd wouldn't buy this at it's listed price.

The game is great.
But the price isen't. Hence why i can only recomend the game at a sale.
16.79 for a game that you can complete less then a hour if you just want the story is lacking.
And also a decent amount of bugs.
But i can forgive that as the game is still playable from start to finish.
Its a great presentation on what Green title can do as developers on the idea front.
as its a intresting premise of a rave with a deeper mystery to it.
But it felt lacking. it had good parts but it feels like it had development issues.it feels half done. Can be budgeting issues or loosing intrest in it. (just assumptions).
I diden't have a good first impression on it. when playing the game at a convention.
I was placed at a later part of the game. feeling very lost and confused as i lacked the context and understanding of the mechanics.
I thought it was basically a game like alien isolation of being hunted but needing to hide among the crowd.
But that wasen't no where near the reality.
I hope they don't give up on the world of game as it still has alot of potential. and i hope it can be revisted. to put more meat on the bones. as its like a good world presentation. But it feels very lacking. When it starts getting good. its already reaching the ending point.
Music is great. But thats the common point among the other reviews.
But only buy it at a sale at most.
Unless they decrease it to 9.99.

What makes or breaks this game is honestly the music; without it, it would be completely pointless to even try to play in the first place. I recommend buying the music over the game which you can here, but you can also hunt down all the music in the files if you know how to open BANK files cause all the audio is stored there and FMOD has it, but the artist did great on the music.
Anyway, I haven't really figured out the game too much but I had a lot of fun roaming around and fighting other people in the game. I haven't hey figured out how to completely play it but I want to cause from everything I've seen so far, this game looks like fun to me. I love raves, been to a few at cons.

It is a wonderful game even if some parts of the game are very saturated. If you are scared by loud noises or creepy masks then I wouldn't recommend that you play and there are lots of lights flashing through the game. It is great none the less and but you are gonna have to start all over again to get different endings and I tried to join the discord but it seems that the link is expired so I cant give my thoughts to the people who made this game.

Just picked it up because it was on sale and I'm so glad I did.
The sountrack is awesome and really gets your heart pumping. The visuals make you feel like you're really at a rave. The gameplay is really interesting and captivating as well. I only stopped playing because I had to go somewhere. Can't wait to get back to this game tonight

I haven't had many games over the years that intrigued me as much as this game when I saw a YouTube playthrough. The visuals and music alone made me want the game as soon as I saw it and I was finally able to get it on a sale one day and I think it is absolutely beautifully done. It's not the most concise storyline, and it's not very long (beat it in a little over an hour) but I think it's definitely worth the money and I love the dev(s) for hopefully creating an entirely new subgenre of horror. I hope to see more from them and more games inspired by this one.
