How it feels

You play as a group of high school students trying to survive a night of terror in a creepy school, with a classic survival-horror feel that leans on tension and cooperation rather than fast-paced action.

What players say

Players praise Obscure as a short, co-op survival horror that captures the feel of 2000s teen horror movies and classic PS2-era games. Many note the fixed camera angles and clunky controls, but say the cooperative tension and nostalgic atmosphere make it worth playing, especially with a friend.
