Our take on Locked Fears
The horror unfolds during Samuel’s night shift in a tightly controlled corporate building, where even phones and cameras stay outside the office.
What is Locked Fears?
Locked Fears is a first-person puzzle and horror game with platforming elements.
Players take the role of Samuel Custer, a late worker at UNIVERS HORIZONS whose office night turns dangerous. The company’s new building has strict security: phones and cameras are left at a checkpoint, sent emails are manually filtered, and work items are identified by codes rather than names. Recently transferred from business analysis to development, Samuel is still learning the job and often works overtime. On this night, an unknown individual assists him as he tries to survive and escape the situation. The setting is a corporate office, where the routine of working late gives way to a frightening scenario.
