About this game

Escape: Rails of the Dead – A first-person mystery adventure set aboard a forgotten train lost between worlds.

🚂 A Train That Defies Reality
You wake up alone on the Dead Rails, a ghostly locomotive drifting through endless night. The windows are sealed. The crew is gone. Only the rhythmic clatter of dead wheels on rusted rails fills the silence. This is no ordinary train—it shifts around you, its corridors twisting, its compartments rearranging themselves. Your goal is simple: survive, solve, and escape.

🌑 Where Nothing Stays the Same
The Dead Rails doesn’t obey the laws of physics. One moment, you’re in a passenger car frozen in time; the next, you’re standing in a maintenance tunnel that shouldn’t exist. The rails outside stretch into darkness, leading nowhere. The train is alive in its own way—and it’s watching you.

🔍 Observe. Adapt. Escape.

Environmental puzzles woven into the train’s decay

Hidden clues in abandoned luggage, faded notes, and broken machinery

Shifting layouts that force you to rethink your path
Progress demands sharp eyes and logic. A flickering light might reveal a hidden switch. A dead-end corridor could hide a secret passage. The rails beneath you hum with unseen energy.

🎭 Atmosphere Over Jump Scares

Eerie realism: peeling paint, flickering bulbs, distant metallic groans

Dynamic sound design: whispers in the vents, distant steam hisses, the groan of bending metal

No supernatural gimmicks—just a train that shouldn’t exist, and a mystery that deepens with every step
