Our take on Hedera

Rather than treating horror as a sequence of combat encounters, Hedera places trauma, dreams, and videogames at the center of its structure. Its puzzles and creatures are tied to fears, while multiple endings replace a single fixed resolution.

What is Hedera?

Hedera follows Ivy as she confronts trauma through dreams and video games while investigating the Moor family's curse.

This 2D psychological horror game centers on puzzle-solving and atmosphere. Its story takes about 3 hours and includes 7+ endings. Players can take pictures, dash, and shoot while encountering 15+ disturbing creatures. Puzzles and creatures represent the character's fears, tying the gameplay elements to the narrative. Movement uses the arrow keys, while Space, Z, or Enter examines objects and advances text. F4 or Alt+Enter switches to fullscreen, and Esc or X opens the menu or cancels actions.
