Our take on Folcroft Monastery
Its short runtime keeps the focus on one retrieval mission, but leaves little room for a longer progression arc or repeated exploration. The scare-focused approach also trades a consistently quiet atmosphere for sudden shocks alongside ambient tension.
What is Folcroft Monastery?
Hired by SMS Group to recover an artifact, the player explores the abandoned Folcroft Monastery and tries to leave alive.

The game is presented as a short experience, with an estimated completion time of 30–45 minutes. Headphones are recommended.
