Asylum

The clinic is built according to Kirkbride's plan, which is mentioned several times during the game. This type of mental hospital architecture was actually used in the past. The game was described as having "twisty storytelling" and "horrifying revelations", and an atmosphere-focused style of horror, much like Scratches. The game was officially announced on July 9, 2010 after a previous viral marketing campaign that involved a series of online videos posted on YouTube alleged to be posted by an escaped inmate called Leonard Huntings. A fake website for the Hanwell Mental Institute was also created. The first official screenshots were posted on August 12, 2011. On January 29, 2013, Agustín Cordes opened a Kickstarter campaign to raise, which would be used to accelerate the game's development. On February 28, 2013, it successfully raised, thus securing additional fundings to port the game to iPad and Android. On October 31, 2024, It was announced that Asylum is currently scheduled for a March 6, 2025 release. The game was officially released on March 14, 2025.

The main character drives to a largely abandoned insane asylum where he believes he was once a patient. He is greeted by Julia, the receptionist, at the lobby desk, who gives him permission to explore the grounds. He seeks information that may help him regain his memories of his time in the asylum, which have been lost. As he explores the building, he encounters Bruno the security guard, and Dr. Miller, who has assumed control of the facility. He also encounters an escaped lunatic, as well as Lenny, a current patient. Over time, he learns that he, Lenny, and another current patient, Bertrand, were part of a collective called "Group E." The main character must continue to make his way through the building and grounds as he tries to learn clues about his past. He learns that the originator of the asylum -- Dr. Hanwell -- and a compatriot -- Dr. Ellis -- were using the Group E patients to explore mysterious tunnels beneath the asylum, where there lurks some kind of otherworldly entity. All of the patients who experienced the entity grew a brain tumor, including the protagonist. Ultimately, he makes his way to the underground tunnel and sees the entity, which drives him completely insane. He commits a horrific act of violence, and then escapes the asylum and drives away.
