Pacify
An indie, multiplayer, horror game with fast paced game play for up to 4 players. Teams will need to explore an eerie mansion with a rumored past of funeral services including contacting deceased loved ones. A scary girl roams the house, and players need to keep her pacified to survive.
What it feels like
The slow-building tension of a supernatural threat roaming the mansion creates anticipatory fear of an encounter. Fast-paced cooperative gameplay with a constant supernatural threat creates sustained edge-of-seat pressure. An inescapable supernatural threat roaming the mansion creates a suffocating, crushing atmosphere.
What it's about
Horror is the primary emotional and design goal—a scary girl roams the eerie mansion, with supernatural creatures and psychological threat as the core experience. Supernatural creatures and contacting the deceased are central to the setting and theming of the mansion and its inhabitants. A scary girl and the eerie mansion setting evoke psychological dread and atmospheric unease rather than visceral gore.
How it plays
Players must actively pacify and manage a supernatural creature threat to stay alive, keeping the girl 'pacified' as the central survival pressure. Pacifying, weakening, and capturing creatures implies managing limited tools, ammo, or abilities under pressure across a mission. Avoiding or managing the roaming girl's awareness and threat level is core to survival strategy and tension.
How it looks and sounds
Steam user tags and description emphasize first-person perspective as a core visual mode for exploration and interaction.
How it's structured
The core experience is designed for up to 4-6 players cooperating online to survive and complete objectives together in a shared horror setting. Each level has a different story and unique monsters, suggesting discrete missions rather than a seamless continuous campaign. Steam description explicitly mentions 'multiple endings,' suggesting branching or variable outcomes per level.
