Dead Faces for Windows

Unravel your past in this psychological horror title

Dead Faces deftly captures the chilling essence of psychological horror, serving up an immersive and unsettling experience that will challenge even seasoned players. This haunting, free-to-play prologue to a much larger game melds mind-bending hallucinations with a grim narrative, pulling you into the spiraling madness of isolation and a forgotten past.

From the onset, Dead Faces plunges you into a disturbing reality. As the protagonist, you're shackled within the confines of an apartment that morphs with each passing day. This ever-changing environment invokes a creeping sense of dread that gnaws at you.

Walk through the haunting halls

A striking feature of Dead Faces is its dynamic hallucination system. It does an excellent job of blurring the lines between reality and hallucinations, immersing you in the setting. The audio and visual aspects of this horror game deserve commendation. Leveraging photo-realism and photo-scanned materials, the game creates an eerily realistic atmosphere that intensifies the horror and plunges you straight into the middle of the terrifying setting. 

Furthermore, the randomized audio pooling system, the dynamic event system, and the atmospheric soundscape play pivotal roles in setting the unnerving tone of the game. The narrative is also as twisted as it is compelling. Jack's story unfolds in multiple chapters, each revealing a fragment of his past and the characters he has forgotten. It's a disconcerting journey through dark themes that players should take note of before playing.

The game's control scheme is also straightforward, supporting only a mouse and keyboard. While this can limit some players who prefer to work with a game controller, it does align with the game's focus on exploration and narrative progression over complex actions. This short yet satisfying prologue is an appetizing teaser for the full game, giving a taste of the dread-filled journey to reclaim Jack's memories. 

Grim, haunting, and highly engaging

Dead Faces artfully immerses players in a realm of psychological horror, blending grim narrative with reality-blurring hallucinations. It masterfully employs photo-realism and dynamic audio systems to craft an unnerving atmosphere that augments the terror, making the journey through the protagonist's disturbed past a compelling and challenging experience. Despite its limitation to mouse and keyboard controls, its focus on exploration and narrative progression makes it an enticing prelude to a larger, dread-filled adventure.
