Sleep paralysis is terrifying for those who experience it. Stuck in a purgatory of being awake mentally, but not physically.
You can see things, but you can’t interact with them, much less defend against them. ENTITY pits you against these creepy crawlies, and all you can do is click away wave after wave of mysterious, dangerous creatures.
You will be in charge of defending a girl suffering from sleep paralysis. The only weaponry you’ll have available to you are the items present in the room. Maybe a camera flash will make some go away, or a spritz of water?
You’ll have to really think fast when you go against some of the tougher monsters. Some can be warded off simply with your keyboard and mouse, but others won’t go down so easily. Luckily, if you get stuck, there’s a monster book available that will give you some hints on how to take down those toughies.
Monsters will come in waves and the difficulty will ramp up as you take down each wave. The longer you survive against each new wave, the higher score you’ll get. Try to keep this girl safe while wracking up some major points, lest you let something unsettling creep too close and wind up in a nightmarish scenario. And try not to think about this game too much when you’re done playing and ready to head to bed for the night. You might want to sleep with your mouth protected by your pillow.
ENTITY is available now on itch.io.
