“Following a promise of the ultimate expression of freedom, you find yourself at the Headless Festival. However, that freedom comes at a cost as the organizers announce that the price of admission is the lives of all attendees. Find a way to escape, even as the forest itself appears to work against you. Try to maintain a grip on reality while logic takes a backseat. And whatever you do, stay away from the sinister presence in the darkness. Can you make your way out without losing yourself?”

Strobophagia is a survival horror game with a unique psychedelic forest rave atmosphere. In the currently released alpha version, players can explore an early slice of the Headless Rave festival — where they can either attempt to escape or solve the mysterious rave’s “rites” in order to experience two distinct teaser endings. The game uses a unique smartphone-mechanic, which allows players to follow the wi-fi signals of various pirate boxes, scattered around the forest rave, in order to find their way around the festival grounds. This also allows the player to communicate with the other attendees connected to the individual networks.

Features

• Exploration-based survival horror through a psychedelic rave lens;
• Macabre puzzles following twisted logic;
• An oppressive yet danceable dark-electro soundtrack;
• In-game smartphone mechanic that helps you locate points of interest and consult the numerous attendees for help.

The full game is planned for release on October 28th 2020, and will expand on the features found in the playable alpha.
