The game opens with the player listening to the messages on their answering machine. One of the messages is from the player’s brother, who is currently working on a redevelopment portfolio for his company. He pleads for the player to come to the old Dowerton train station in Dorset because something is very wrong. The player travels by train to Dowerton to help their brother, only to find out that he, as well as two other people, have disappeared in the past few hours. The player then discovers that the station has a dark history, and that this isn’t the first time people have vanished.
