HOW TO PLAY

Goal
Find the three skeleton keys, reach the front door and press E to escape before the 6:00 timer ends — without letting the Hollow touch you.

Desktop
WASD move, mouse to look (click the scene to grab the mouse), Shift to sprint, E to take keys / open the door, P to pause.

Phone
Left thumb stick to walk, drag anywhere on the right to look, RUN to sprint, ACT to pick up and open.

Survive
Your lantern shows the way; the red pulse at the edges of the screen is the Hollow getting close — run toward the door, not toward it.
