Headup Games will launch Cracked Heads Games‘ next game, Silver Chains on multiple platforms.

„After his car hit a tree in a stormy night, Peter wakes up in an old abandoned mansion, somewhere in England. He can´t remember why and how he got here, but soon he realises that the house is not as abandoned as it seems. While trying to find a way out of the house, Peter has to uncover the dark secrets of what has happened in this place. As he tries to find his way out, Peter discovers hints which indicate that he has already been here before. But by the time he’s starting to put the pieces of the puzzle together, something evil has picked up his trail… Solve puzzles to find out how you are connected to the mysteries of this place. But be careful: Something evil lurks in the cold, dark masonry and it has already started hunting you,” the game’s Steam page says.

There will also be „an atmospheric horror experience: photo-realistic and detailed graphics bring the interior of an old abandoned mansion to life. Dark passages, a brawly thunderstorm, paranormal activities and a thrilling story will provide you with complete immersion into the game, accompanied by an eerie soundtrack and English voice-overs,” as well as an evil „you cannot fight – run for your life or find a place to hide: Experience an intense feeling of horror as you try to escape from the monster chasing you down.” (We have seen something similar in 2014 with Alien: Isolation…)

Silver Chains will launch on August 6 on PC, followed by a Q4 2019 release on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch. Will it be more than a cliché game, or can it bring something new to the table…?
