Our take on BUTTON PRISON
The focused button-based structure keeps the experience compact, but it also limits interaction to a narrow set of repeated actions. The short runtime suits a single-session format, while players seeking extended exploration or varied mechanics may find the scope restrictive.
What is BUTTON PRISON?
BUTTON PRISON is a horror game set in a mysterious room containing sparse furniture, mannequins, and many buttons.
Progress depends on pressing designated buttons and remembering what happens afterward. Pressing one can cause objects to fall or trigger other events, while certain buttons may surprise the player. The objective is to recall events, gather specified items, and find a safe way out. Pressing too many buttons can reduce the character’s sanity. A playthrough is estimated at 40 to 90 minutes. Options include graphics and mouse-sensitivity settings. Video streaming is permitted for individuals and companies without prior permission, with a request to include a Steam page link in the video description.
