Subject 44: Horror Escape

You wake up with a fresh scar on your head and a hole in your memory. A cold voice on the intercom calls you Forty-Four. Another voice, inside your skull, tells you to remember.

Every door has a lock. Every lock has a question. Someone wrote them all.

And you keep seeing Forty-Three.

SUBJECT 44 is a first-person psychological horror game. Walk the grey corridors of an abandoned research lab, survive the Doctor's tests, and piece together what really happened here before your mind gives out.

▶ SIXTEEN ESCAPE ROOMS
A gallery with a crooked painting. A darkroom lit only in red. A music room where the piano remembers a song. A garage where someone knocks from inside the boot. A tiled maze where candles mark the way. A sunlit courtyard that grows darker with every wrong answer. A laboratory of labelled bottles. A room of mirrors where something stands only in the glass. And a lift that stops at the wrong floor, where something very big is sleeping on the door.

Every room has three different puzzles, and the codes change every time you play.

▶ SEALED ROOMS
Four doors are sealed. Open them, find the pieces of a torn photograph, and the last test will open for you.

▶ THE DOCTOR'S TESTS
Memory, focus and logic tests. A locked room slowly filling with gas. A children's playroom where only the heaviest key opens the red door. Medium for a fair challenge. Hard for reversed sequences, switching rules and less time. Beat Hard to unlock NIGHTMARE.

▶ A MIND THAT FIGHTS BACK
Your migraine grows as you push on: blurred vision, ringing ears, whispers and things that are not there. Rest before it's too late, or black out and wake somewhere else.

▶ DON'T LET THE CAMERAS SEE YOU
Tracking cameras watch every corridor. Stay in their sight too long and the alarm wails, and Dr. H sends the Orderly: a tall shadow that hunts you through the halls. It follows your light and the sound of your running. Break its line of sight, switch off your flashlight, or reach a room it will not enter.

▶ SOMEONE IS ALWAYS WATCHING
Shadowy, glitching figures stand behind the glass. The facility's own security feeds show things you did not see. A painted clown waits in a different room each game.

▶ PLAY IT AGAIN, AND IT REMEMBERS YOU
• Every code, key and hiding place is shuffled in each new game
• Finish once and the story changes: the Doctor remembers you, and a note in your own handwriting is waiting in your cell
• Four endings, including a secret true ending
• DAILY CHALLENGE with streak rewards, and SPEEDRUN mode with split times
• Hidden memories that stay found forever, and Dr. H's locked private office
• Achievements, star ratings and best times for every room
• A "still hidden" list at the end shows how much you have not found yet
• Automatic saving, so you can pick up where you left off

▶ MADE FOR HEADPHONES
Full 3D sound: footsteps that are not yours, a voice on the intercom, breathing behind the glass.

• Touch controls: move with your left thumb, look with your right
• Plays offline, no account needed
• Free to start: open the later doors by watching a short ad, or unlock the full game once
