A slow, immersive descent into psychological dread through atmospheric exploration and cryptic puzzles.

What players say

Players compare Asylum unfavorably to Scratches, calling it atmospheric but let down by a weak story and abrupt ending. The puzzles are engaging and logical, though some find them obtuse. Technical issues like crashes on exit and missing audio are reported.
