The Prisoner is a horror story that has you wake up within a prison and forced to play a game of trust and betrayal with another inmate. The winner shall decide who gets to leave.

Features:

The Prisoner is a Visual Novel (VN) in 3D. 

  • It makes use of its third dimension in order to help immerse its players into the story, and break apart the barriers that separate the real world from the world our characters inhabit.
  • In this horror novel, you don't just read the story.
    You are a character in it. (With all of the risk that entails) 
  • Based upon the classical "prisoner's dilemma", we drop you into the shoes of an inmate forced to play a sick game of trust with another.

Let us hope you manage to live it through!
