## About This Game
Dark Fracture Prologue is the first chapter of an indie psychological horror
game played in first-person.
Over the course of the game, the player is faced with the character’s inner
chaos – witnessing the world change around him as the barrier between reality
and imagination seems to crumble.
Dark Fracture Prologue takes place in the late ’90s, set in an isolated
forested region in the rural USA. You are put in the shoes of Edward: a body
farm employee who is pained by his past, and only finding solace in the
medicine that helps him get through the day. Edward is barely able to cope
with his personal issues, which are only intensified by him living in
solitude. He puts on a brave front and dutifully wakes up for work every day.
His routine serves as his only anchor, but deep inside, trouble is
simmering…
One night, while working the dreaded midnight shift, a chain of disturbing
events draws Edward ever close to losing his grip on reality. As the very
fabric of his world seems to unravel and twist. His home of the past few years
is being pulled from under his feet. The cruel hand of fate once more nudging
him towards disaster. One that threatens to engulf Edward’s home in shadow.
Is it merely his mind playing tricks on him? Or perhaps there truly is
something darker clawing at his heels, threatening to drag him into the
depths? We’re counting on you to figure it out: The choices you make will
shape the results of his terrifying tale. Trapped between a world of horrors
inspired by the works of ones such as H.R. Giger, and the unkind reality of
the body farm from whence he came. Survive a twofold nightmare in Dark
Fracture Prologue!
