Our take on The 3rd Building 三教
The premise turns the horror inward by making lost memory the central mystery. Instead of beginning with a clearly defined external threat, it places the protagonist in a cursed location while questions about identity and an indie-game studio drive the investigation.
What is The 3rd Building 三教?
The 3rd Building is a first-person horror game about a protagonist who cannot remember anything.
