Publisher Playism and developer Lizardry have announced a release date for Cling to Blindness, their new horror adventure game.
Their auditory horror adventure game is coming to Windows PC (via Steam) early next month, on November 4th.
Here’s a rundown on the game:
Cling to Blindness is a horror audio game where you must rely solely on audio cues to complete a ritual. In this ritual, being blindfolded is a must and not just a suggestion. Playing with headphones is strongly recommended for the full experience.
Navigate with Your Mouse
Use your mouse to progress through the game. Moving it left and right changes your perspective and will help you locate where sounds are coming from. Left-click to step forward.
Follow the Sounds
Once Ashioto catches up to you, it’s game over… Rely on sound to navigate and achieve your goal. Instead of visuals, you’ll have to depend on a variety of audio cues to help guide you through the darkness.
There are no sudden jump scares as this is a sound-driven horror experience designed to be playable even for those who aren’t a fan of traditional horror games.
However, if you begin to feel unwell, we recommend you stop playing the game immediately.
There are three rules you must follow…
- Never take off your blindfold.
- Do not let Ashioto catch up to you.
- Collect all five talismans.
Story
You play as Satsuki, a girl who travels to the ruins of an abandoned village to perform a ritual.Listen carefully.
If you hear footsteps… that means Ashioto is near.
Never, ever let them catch you.
Use the sound of wind chimes to locate the talismans.
Your hearing becomes your vision as nothing will be shown on the screen.
So do not remove your blindfold—
not until it’s time for it to be taken off.
