The Kept Fire
Demo available
About the game
Your brother’s hiking group vanished. Beyond the cave, the valley is hunting you. The beast only moves when you look away, but stare too long and you go blind. Keep your fire alive, find a way out, and remember: you can survive three encounters. Not four.
Original Steam description
Your brother is gone. The valley is awake.
A Sister's Search
When her brother's hiking group vanishes, Astrid follows their trail into a cave and comes out in a valley that isn't on any map. Something else lives here, and the only thing keeping her alive is a fire.
Key Features
Keep the Fire Alive: Night is when the valley wakes. Your campfire is only safe ground keeping away the monster. Gather firewood, ration every log, and never let the last ember die.
Look Away and It Moves. Stare and You Go Blind: The beast only moves when you aren't watching it, but holding its gaze drains your sight until you're forced to look away. You'll survive three encounters. Not four.
Don't Trust Your Senses: Whispers with no source. A presence you can feel but can't see. In the valley, what you hear can't be trusted.
Find the Way Out: The valley's abandoned power grid is the key to escape. Restore it, get in contact with the outside world, if you live that long.
