With Halloween only days away, it’s just “right” that certain horror titles get a spotlight for the night of frights to come. Enter Digital Lighthouse Games, which not too long ago revealed its title Encryption to the world. Now, they’ve announced that from today until November 2nd, you’ll get to see what terrors the game will unleash via the demo, as part of Steam Scream Fest V. If you want to know more about the title itself, check out the synopsis and trailer below:

“Set against the backdrop of devastating wildfires sweeping through southern Italy, Encryption follows Leonardo, a desperate father searching for his missing daughter, Arianna. His journey takes him to Matera, one of the oldest inhabited places on Earth, where deserted streets and the encroaching flames conceal something far more sinister lurking beneath the ancient city.

Blending atmospheric exploration, environmental puzzles and stealth-driven survival, Encryption brings the haunting landscapes of southern Italy and Matera to life using advanced 3D laser scanning and photogrammetry technology. Recreated in Unreal Engine, its richly detailed environments provide the setting for a psychological horror experience where every sound could attract unwanted attention and danger awaits around every corner.”

Sounds…tense. That seems to be the point, though, as they want you to have a terrifying and immersive experience within the title. Remember, the demo will only be available until November 2nd, so if you don’t mind getting scared and fearing what might be just up ahead…or behind you…play the demo now!
