“Heartworm is whip-smart, and tightly made — a real gem”
RE:BIND

“...like the first Silent Hill right down to the tank controls with a protagonist who looks like she stepped out of the OG Tomb Raider.”

About This Game

Sam, unable to move on from the death of her beloved grandfather, falls down an internet rabbit hole chasing the promise of reuniting with him. 

Following the lead of a mysterious forum, she finds herself at a supposedly supernatural house in the mountain, hoping to make contact with the other side.

  • A journey through grief and loss within retro-inspired atmospheric environments.

  • 4-6 hours of gameplay with multiple endings

  • Both pre-rendered and in-game cutscenes

  • A focus on exploration with classic puzzles, and limited combat using a camera as a weapon

  • A modern control scheme with 3rd person over-the-shoulder aiming and optional classic tank controls

  • Optional pixelation and retro effects calling back to the first 3D console era for a more authentic experience

  • A haunting original soundtrack

Experience a psychologically-focused narrative love letter to late 90s genre staples Silent Hill and Resident Evil.
