Gravewood High is an infinitely replayable stealth horror game with roguelike elements and level destruction.

At spooky Gravewood High, students have gone missing under the noses of all the adults around them. The school is a trap and your task is to get out of it.

But there’s two problems. One, the building has turned into a deadly labyrinth that constantly shifts and changes. Two, you are being chased by the Teacher - a crazed overlord of this place.

With fellow student and friend Erin, players will have to navigate the halls to uncover the truth behind the disappearances by interacting with the multi-level, destructible environment. But beware, as unlocking the mysteries of the titular school won’t be easy with the sinister Teacher lurking around every corner on a hunt of his own.

Gravewood High opens its doors for your creepiest school year yet today, available as Early Access title on Steam and Epic Games Store for $19.99.

“The first game level (of the three planned) is ready and can be played until the end. You can complete it in about an hour and a half, but some parts are randomized to provide more replay value.The basic mechanics of the game are all done, and we will be enhancing the first level with more randomization, additional content and game mechanics during Early Access. Gravewood High is already fun to play, but you may encounter a few bugs. If you do, be sure to report them ;)

The full version of the game will feature 3+ levels, each taking a few hours to complete. Each level will be highly randomized: loot, the Teacher’s behaviour and traps, rooms, puzzles, etc. will change from one run to another. The teacher will get new gameplay-changing abilities (a few of which we have teased in the EA roadmap),many optional (and more difficult) puzzles will be added, with cool rewards that enhance your playthrough.

We plan to add even more interactivity to the game’s environment: it will be possible to disarm some of the Teacher’s traps and use them against him, there will be a lot more destructible objects, etc."

Key Features

  • Dynamic environment – the school’s layout changes with each run and the interior can be destroyed by both the player and the Teacher, creating a tense and unique adventure.
  • Tricky opponent – as the game progresses, the Teacher transforms physically and develops new abilities, becoming smarter and much more dangerous. Simply hiding is not enough. In order to win, you must outwit the Teacher by finding and destroying objects that he holds dear or by luring him into traps.
  • An elaborate mystery spanning centuries - the game’s plot plunges you into the atmosphere of several iconic periods of history, from the wild 80s, to the American Civil War. 

Gravewood High is coming to PC (Steam and Epic Games Store) in 2022
