Steam Store description

"Don't Play This" is a first-person indie horror game in the walking simulator genre. Approximate playtime: 1–1.5 hours Horror genre Walking simulator First-person view Diverse locations and visual styles Realistic graphics DESCRIPTION People often film what happens to them. They want to capture an important moment, call for help, or simply leave a trace in their memory. But sometimes, such a recording becomes the last one of their life. Your friend starts sending you videos. You don’t know where they found them or why they sent them to you, but in each of these recordings, someone dies. You will immerse yourself in these moments one after another and will have to experience what ended the tape forever. GAMEPLAY You move through a series of short but intense episodes — each of which is a reconstruction of the last minutes of different people’s lives. Beautiful graphics and high-quality 3D audio will help you fully experience the game’s atmosphere. HIDDEN HORROR In each location, your own nightmare awaits you: some threats are immediately visible, while others remain hidden until the very last moment. Each place has its own unique visual style and special atmosphere. CAUTION! The game contains flashing lights that may trigger epileptic seizures.
