About this game
You are a nurse on a night shift in an old hospital wing that was supposed to close years ago. You do your rounds, check charts and dispense medicine, but patients appear in beds that were empty an hour ago, and the charts list names you do not recognize. You cannot fight anything. You can only keep working, and notice.
The ward is lit in sickly green fluorescents with deep shadows, and the sound design is unbearable in the best way. A full shift lasts about 3 hours, with two endings. It is for players who like slow-burn dread over jump scares. The caveat: there are two loud scares late in the game, and some players may find the medical themes upsetting.
