Our take on IFU
The defining detail is the mansion's loop-based investigation: Alexander revisits an abandoned surgeon's home, using objects, documents, and environmental clues to assemble its hidden story.
What is IFU?
IFU is a psychological horror game about Alexander, a computer programmer trapped in an abandoned mansion with the restless soul of a dead surgeon.
The story follows repeated loops of exploration as Alexander investigates the building and uncovers Dr. Hatcher's secrets. Progress involves examining objects and documents, observing environmental details, and assembling clues to understand the events taking place. Sounds, lantern light, hidden threats, and the mansion's abandoned rooms shape the atmosphere. An invitation promising a new life instead draws Alexander into a struggle for survival, where each discovery reveals more about the horror surrounding him and the mystical Droseries.
