The 9th Charnel aims to provide a haunting and desperate action-survival experience. While exploring the many mysteries of this world, you must survive — whether you do it through stealth or by using weapons.

Michael and his colleagues - Sara Whitlock and Daniel J. Hart- are genetic scientists at The Epsilon Research Institute. In one of their curriculum, they decide to conduct research at the nearest wildlife sanctuary. On their ill-fated journey, they encounter an inconceivable incident. As a result, their car rolls down the road into a deep valley-type area. Stuck in a valley, alone, Michael must find his friends and survive multiple dangerous life-threatening incidents that lead them to believe that the place has a history of evil activities. To see the fate of the three friends, play to the end.

Most of the time, the player has to survive impossible threats through stealth and clever navigation of the environment. As the player progresses through the game and threats grow significantly more complex, the player uncovers new stories and receives new weapons.

At its scariest, the game preys on the player’s anxiety, survival, and Exploration skills. It takes place in a not-so-future world, where people have lost faith in the prosperity of human development, people are selfish, and governments are corrupt.

The 9th Charnel offers a rich, narrative experience featuring realistic graphics, an immersive soundtrack, and a captivating storyline.  Explore the riveting tale of six characters, each with their own unique backstory and motivations.

Survive the horrors by skillfully gathering and managing resources while mastering weapon combat and stealth mechanics to stay one step ahead of danger.
