7743 is a puzzle heavy psychological horror game where you play as Simon Kimana who has grown up in a well known family who have built their wealth from selling kimonos. Situated in 1980s Japan, Simon's family is brutally murdered in front of his own eyes, as he watches in horror, hidden away in his parent's closet.
From there on out, Simon's mind has snapped to the point where he places blame upon himself for only watching and not acting and is unable to break from the event of that day, as he relives it, piece by piece.
Throughout Simon's mental state, he must unlock his mind and look beyond what he has set out to believe and accept the truth of what has happened on that horrible day.

After nearly 2 years since my last release (Night at the Office), here we are with 7743! With school and work taking up a huge piece of my time these last couple of years, I am super happy to have the ability to jump back into game dev and pump out this new terror.
Over the years, I've spent a great deal looking into new horror releases and trying to expand further beyond my typical release (Even visited Japan for inspiration :D ). Now, the focus is to provide players with not only a terrifying experience, but also a difficult one, whereby you must focus on the story and your surroundings in order to solve puzzles and experience all the game has to offer.
One thing you will notice with this game is a large increase in puzzles and interactions, alongside an option to choose between Normal or Hard puzzles, each of which offering different experiences and interactions. Increasing the degree of variability has definitely increased the complications of this game and has made it take a bit longer to build than expected, but nonetheless, I believe the game turned out well, and will provide you with an experience far different than what you have seen when compared to my previous releases.
I truly hope that you enjoy what the game has to offer, and I would love to hear your feedback to help progress future games! :)
cheers and happy gaming!
