Our take on Colony
Players looking for combat systems will likely bounce off when the game shifts from retrieving the cricket ball to investigating the bungalow, because the stated interaction centers on puzzles, the ghost’s story, and escape.
What is Colony?
After a cricket ball lands inside a haunted house, a teenager enters the bungalow to retrieve it and encounters a ghost.
Colony is a first-person horror game about exploring the building, solving puzzles, and uncovering mysteries connected to the spirit’s personal story. Interaction with the ghost contributes to puzzle progression and the psychological horror. An eerie setting and unsettling sound design create tension during the search for a way out. The game combines a haunting narrative with environmental investigation, puzzle-solving, supernatural encounters, and an escape objective.
