Nyctophobia: Fear the Dark is a first-person horror survival game based on SCP and Foundation lore. You play as a foundation detention class member sent to investigate the brutal massacre of the residents of Erfurt Village (a gated community located in the modern-day Midwest) with nothing but a flashlight to protect themselves. During the player’s investigation, they discover the anomaly hunts its victims using fear, how it spreads from one location to another, how it came into existence, and how it broke containment. The player will use their flashlight to navigate the small spaces. As the creature toys with the player, they will need to solve puzzles and defeat the creature in deadly games of tag and hide-n-seek in order to survive.
