About POOLS
This game immerses you in a hauntingly atmospheric experience where exploration and sound take center stage. Blending elements of art and fear, it invites players into a series of enigmatic mazes that evoke feelings of isolation and disorientation. With no combat or dialogue, you navigate through six distinct chapters, each presenting a unique setting that unfolds through its eerie acoustics rather than traditional storytelling. The absence of a user interface and background music enhances the tension, as you slowly traverse water-filled environments that alter your pace and perception. Inspired by internet phenomena like liminal spaces and the Backrooms, the game creates a surreal journey that leaves players questioning reality. Perfect for fans of experimental exploration and atmospheric horror.
