Articles - Infliction

We’ve all had one of those dreams… You’re in a familiar place, like the house where you grew up, but as you explore you realise that something is wrong. It’s too quiet, too empty, and the more frightened you get, the stranger everything becomes. As your surroundings become more fractured and alien, you come to the terrible realisation that you are not alone in this terrible place. Something is hunting you. Infliction is a horror game that taps into that deep fear that we all share, of a safe and familiar place being warped into a nightmare. As you explore what looks like an ordinary suburban home, you will discover clues about the terrible events that shattered the family that once lived here. All the while, a vengeful supernatural force shadows your footsteps, determined to punish you for past sins. Reading letters and listening to voicemails, you will realise a horrifying truth: nothing can hurt us more than the people we trust the most.
