Eclipsium is a surreal first-person horror game that involves unconventional actions like removing one’s own heart to activate a mysterious machine. In this bizarre environment, players navigate through vivid imagery that strikes them as deeply unsettling and yet captivating. Although clarity about the game’s narrative is sparse, the atmosphere is rich with psychedelic elements, aiming to disturb players on a fundamental level, sometimes manifesting through interactions that defy logical reasoning. With a blend of retro graphics reminiscent of the PS1 era and distorted visual aesthetics, the game is both unnerving and engaging.
The player starts in a hospital, with their identity ambiguous, portrayed merely as a pair of hands engaging with the environment. As the gameplay progresses, they encounter various challenges, including puzzle-like scenarios that require unique solutions, such as cutting off a tongue to unlock a door, signifying the game’s commitment to shock and surprise.
Eclipsium promises not only to offer light puzzles but to immerse players in a haunting narrative that questions their reality and perception as they venture deeper into its hallways.
