Our take on Project DeepWeb

The observer role narrows interaction with the game's inhabitants: encounters primarily support the investigation and story, rather than opening into relationship systems, combat, or broader character control.

What is Project DeepWeb?

Project DeepWeb is an exploration simulator built around searching online pages and files.

The objective is to reach the Silent House and save a friend by moving through multiple Internet levels. Puzzles appear across the surface, while their solutions are hidden deeper within the game's web structure. The journey includes hundreds of websites, dozens of puzzles, unsettling stories, and encounters with the people inhabiting this digital setting. The game presents the player as a silent observer who must investigate the material and decide how far to dig. Some discoveries reveal information intended to remain hidden, while the broader narrative follows personal tragedies, ruthless acts, and the search for a friend and survival.

How Project DeepWeb plays

01Web Investigation
Progress comes from examining online locations and stored documents scattered throughout the game.
02Layered Puzzles

03Rescue Objective
The investigation is organized around reaching the Silent House and finding a friend.
04Unsettling Stories
The explored world contains character encounters, personal tragedies, and acts of ruthlessness.
