Our take on Devil's Trap
The defining structure is an investigation framed by unanswered questions: a detective follows a snowy-evening call, reaches the location, and becomes part of the disappearance at the center of the story.
What is Devil's Trap?
Devil's Trap is a brief independent horror title built around a mystery.
During a winter night, a detective is sent to investigate a phone message and then disappears without anyone reporting contact with him. The narrative concerns a small group of characters, interrogations, and a strange flower from beyond the natural world. Its visual style uses retro, low-polygon graphics, while the story and mood remain grim. Gameplay alternates between moderate and faster-paced sequences.
