Skyhill: Black Mist is a rogue-like survival game where you explore the vast and varied locations of the haunted condominium, manage your depleting supplies and take part in stealth-oriented encounters.

In Skyhill: Black Mist players awake inside a huge and luxurious condominium built by Skyhill Inc., an omnipotent bio-tech corporation that controls every aspect of the entire city. As one Skyhill’s new employees, players will follow the game’s hero as he moves into the new apartment unaware of what is to come. Things quickly go terribly wrong and players will have to contend with the dark monsters and possessed cultists that have suddenly invaded mazelike corridors of the Skyhill complex as they search for the protagonist’s missing daughter. Players will have to survive in the labyrinth of hallways and avoid a threatening black mist which has turned humans into vile creatures.

In Skyhill: Black Mist players will explore the vast and varied locations of the haunted condominium, manage depleting supplies and take part in stealth-oriented encounters. Whether opting for brutal force, remaining unseen or by finding hidden passages to avoid obstacles, players will be able to choose how to overcome the difficulties they’re presented in Black Mist. Caution is key in Black Mist as enemies are extremely dangerous, the environment is unforgiving and even slightest mistake can result in a heavy cost. Skyhill: Black Mist presents players with a unique blend of stealth-action, survival and RPG genres set in modern dystopian world.


"I think of the first Skyhill as a kind of an introduction to what we're creating now for Black Mist. We had time to significantly improve and expand the main concept; only the haunted building was left from the original game." - said Eugene Kisterev, head of the project at Mandragora Games - "The scale and the scope of this new adventure are incomparably greater, both in terms of gameplay solutions and due to the transition to extensive 3D locations that can be freely explored. It's a big game, full of surprises and plot-twists. I hope both fans of the original game and new players will like it."

Key Features:

  • Non-linear exploration - Carve your own way in the semi-open world of Skyhill condominium, and within buildings such as, schools, shopping centers, business lounges, cinemas, underground parking spaces and variety of other technical locations. 
  • Survival at all cost - Infected by mysterious black mist, you’re slowly dying... You’re constantly in danger, you have to search for medicine to heal your wounds, gather and manage resources, craft new tools and weapons to survive as long as possible in this hostile environment. And above all else, you need to find a way to stop a mysterious black mist.   
  • Story-driven plot - Immerse yourself in a twisted story full of unexpected turns, where the line between reality and illusion is heavily blurred.
  • Play Your Way - Solve problems however you choose. Use the environment to your advantage, lure enemies into traps, sneak using stealth or hit them hard with brute force, you decide.
  • Mysterious Threat - Nothing is as it seems, distinguish reality from illusions to find out what’s real and what’s not to solve the mystery of the dark mist’s origins.

Skyhill: Black Mist will debut for PC (Steam) on May 28, 2020 with PS4, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch version to follow on August 27, 2020.
