“There’s no signal. No escape. Something down here stirs... And one of us has to be lying...”
In the year 2066, what was supposed to be a routine research expedition on a remote island turns into a nightmare. An unexpected collapse traps you deep underground with six others—but something about this place isn’t natural. What begins as a struggle for survival soon twists into something stranger. Whispers echo in the dark, and as suspicion spreads, questions mount: Who can you trust? Why does the cave feel... alive? And was this truly an accident?
