About This Game

The cold blue tiles beneath your feet seem to tremble and shake from some unseen movement below them. Below you. The sickly fluorescent above your head flickers and sways, casting dancing shadows across the sea of blue. A speaker in the corner shrieks into life and a voice croaks out of its circuits and into yours: “Welcome to the Silkbulb Test.”

Silkbulb Test is a co-operative and single player horror experience where you explore a mysterious, uncanny, and sunken place. The creatures, the environment, and your own body want you dead.

• Harvest the minds of the Sunken Ones to keep your body from grinding to a halt
• Asymmetrical roles are required to move forward, each with its own set of horrors to witness and survive. Silkbulb Test is about being alone, together. Communication is limited and players are separated.
• Customize and bond with your very own Safe-T-Face – the disembodied and personalized head of a Sunken One that alerts you of any creatures just beyond the light.

Today is special, participant.
Do well out there in the dark.

ABOUT THE DEMO:

The included demo should be considered an introduction and early tutorial to the world and is not representative of the gameplay for the full game.

You’re late. We were about to start without you.
Through that elevator on your left, please. And then down the hallway – don’t lollygag, we’re behind enough as it is.
If the elevator stops, under no circumstances should you exit before reaching the correct floor. Repeat that to me please so I know you understood it.
Ok, thank you.

When you get there, take a seat at the center table. The test will begin shortly. Do not speak to the other participants. Do not take any photographs. Do not write down your memories of it. And do not look directly into the slide projector.

What? No, it’s a slide projector – it won’t do any damage. But you won’t be able to see. And we need you to see.
