Dark thoughts and loneliness trap you in a looping indie horror game set in an abandoned asylum that mirrors your mind's prison. Progress through 15 day cycles by collecting calendar pages and returning them to your basement room, where time halts otherwise. The longer you linger, horrors intensify, altering the asylum around you while creatures like Lara and the Plague Doctor interfere-Lara wavers between aid and opposition, and the Plague Doctor inflicts painful treatments that halt your advance.
Run, hide, or confront these threats to uncover the asylum's story and its inhabitants. Your presence manifests evil in this prison-like grotto of sadness, growing ever more sinister. Fans of psychological looping horror thrive on facing the unknown across escalating dangers.
Dark thoughts, sadness, loneliness, depression.
The unsafe parts of your mind.
Do not explore them for too long.
Sorrow Asylum is a looping horror game, a mix of an abandoned asylum and your mind's prison. The longer you stay, the deeper you sink.
Explore the asylum of sadness, where time stops, unless you progress by taking the calendar pages into your room down in the basement of the asylum. The longer you stay in this place, the more horrors will try and stop you, fix you, change you, the more the whole place gets affected by your presence.
You'll meet the creatures of such a place: Lara and Plague Doctor.
Lara seems like just another patient, who's room is right next to yours, but it is not always clear whether she's helping or going against you.
The Plague Doctor may try to treat you, but he also does it painfully or simply stopping you from making the time move and damaging you in the process.
The game has 15 day cycles to offer, where the asylum gets progressively more and more sinister and dangerous. The player has the options to run and hide, but often needs to simply confront the unknown and keep learning the story of this place and its citizens.
The evil can be locked up.
Prison. Grotto. Asylum.
These unsafe places will manifest through you.
