The Guest is a haunting and claustrophobic first person exploration game where solving puzzles, secrets and riddles is the only way to escape a gloomy hotel room and figure out who’s responsible.

Set in the 1980’s, The Guest has players take on the role of Dr. Evgueni Leonov, an old Russian scientist who has taken up residence in the rundown Oakwood hotel only to find himself trapped in his room with no way to get out. He resorts to his only option; exploring every inch of his new found physical and psychological “jail,” solving puzzles and riddles along the way to reveal the identity of his captor and more importantly their motive. It’s a complex puzzle game with all of the pieces and players in plain view for players to decipher.

Mechanics from classic great adventure games and immersive storytelling help players closely examine objects around them, which will offer critical clues to solving puzzles needed to uncover who is behind this mystery. Enhancing the intrigue and intensity of the plot, The Guest features a claustrophobic atmosphere and a calm yet chilling soundtrack.

Key Features:

  • Immersive storytelling: As you delve deeper into The Guest, you begin to unravel the enigma behind Dr. Evgueni Leonov’s backstory which makes you wonder if all is really what it seems. The layers of mystery and intrigue in the narrative make The Guest a unique and compelling experience.
  • Evocative Environment: Set against the distinctive backdrop of the 80’s in a dilapidated and eerie building, ‘The Guest’ draws players in with its foreboding and mysterious atmosphere.
  • Challenging Gameplay Experience: A combination of classic adventure gameplay mechanics and challenging puzzles with a multifaceted narrative to tie it all together ensures that players will be captive to The Guest’s engaging plot.

The Guest will be available as digital download through Steam for $9.99.
