An inherited estate.
A concealed stairway.
Something that should
have stayed below.
What begins as a favor for your best friend becomes a struggle to escape his new home. With your friend injured, the power gone, and the only means of leaving out of reach, you must venture through a house you barely know—while something watches from the darkness.
It Waits is a first-person atmospheric horror game built around an intelligent creature that observes your choices and adapts to your behavior. Familiar routes become risks. Hiding places become less certain. Every sound could give you away.
Work with your friend, improvise warnings, and use scarce ammunition to create opportunities to escape. Your weapon can buy you time. It cannot make the house safe.
It watches.
Your choices do not go unnoticed.
It listens.
Every sound could give you away.
It learns.
The familiar becomes uncertain.
