With the untimely demise of your father you have come into rulership of an ancient and dark castle. You are haunted by nightmares and isolation until reality fades away and you find yourself in a world which may or may not be real, where whispers are all that exist of other people and the darkness itself is trying to devour you. Your only defense is a strange lantern that came with you. Find out what is happening and free yourself, or die here…

In our concept game, Alone, you will play as Hugh, lord of Darkholm castle, whose experiments with the occult have awakened something strange, and trapped him in an otherworld parallel to his own, where his fears and feelings take on tangible shape – a deeper darkness always at the edge of sight, always hunting him.

Wielding a mystic lantern, Hugh will explore Darkholm castle, and through it, his past, his connections with his family and friends, the annals of his heart and mind, to uncover the secret of the dark power that consumes his home, and hungers for his soul.
