  1. Introduction/Brief Summary
Eight people trapped in an old laboratory find themselves caught up in sinister circumstances as they try to survive their final moments in this action-packed, terrifying body horror game full of gore and madness. Immerse yourself in a nightmare where the boundary between flesh and insanity blurs. Oxide Room 208 challenges you to face your fears in a dark and twisted environment.
 
  1. Chronology of a massacre. THE STORY
Oxide Room 208 tells the story of eight people who are trapped by the ruthless Doc and forced to be connected to his experiment, Oxide. This dark and twisted place is controlled by Eva, an innocent victim used by Doc in his cruel research to turn her into the host of the experiment. However, Eva's sanity has reached its limit, causing the experiment to spiral out of control and create an organic, hellish environment that transcends reality. Now everyone is trapped in this nightmare filled with grotesque creatures and dangers, inspired by an old motel and the underground laboratory facilities where many atrocities were committed in the name of science. If you want to survive the night, find door 208 and go through it at all costs.
 
  1. Dissecting the victims (the usual suspects)

Two shady characters trying to shoot a dirty movie with an undercover cop, a cannibal hiker and his fiancée, a rock legend searching for answers, a half-naked madman who seems to feel right at home down there, and two famous streamers from a well-known horror channel will be the perfect victims for the twisted creatures that roam the corridors of Doc's facility, and he has no qualms with mutilate their flesh and twist their memories until they are consumed and nothing remains, keeping hidden his terrible secret and his questionable and unethical experiment.
 
  • We all have some secret we can't tell anyone. So don't trust anyone! Some of those present have a much more sinister motive than just escaping from there alive.
  • When a character dies, there’s a good chance you will see them again, but they will have changed for the worse. Avoid the revenants at all costs!

** All characters in Oxide Room 208 are real actors and actresses digitized using motion capture techniques.
 
  1. Pure physical terror. Welcome to Doc’s lair

Explore different, eerie environments: Survive your journey through the forest, avoid the creatures lurking in the old mine, enter the underground laboratory where the experiment went haywire, or try to escape with your life through the greenhouse or the old motel while the rest of the survivors rot in the containment cells. Try different paths to avoid deadly encounters or find the armory and let the massacre begin. Visit seven different horror-filled locations that will make your hair stand on end.
 
  1. Creatures Born of Nightmares
You are not the only one living in hell. The facilities are teeming with grotesque abominations, creatures born of chaos that defy reason. Their murderous intelligence and stealthy movements will relentlessly pursue you. Every encounter with these beings is a blow to the senses, a reminder that terror lurks around every corner, waiting to devour your last glimmer of hope.
 
  • When certain creatures see you, they will relentlessly pursue you throughout the facility. But don't just run blindly, because you might end up running into something even worse.
  • With art focused on the bodyhorror genre and over a dozen different types of foes, Oxide Room 208 will test your sanity.
 
  1. The Fight for Survival
More than just a game, Oxide Room 208 is an immersive survival experience. Interaction with the environment is visceral: you manage your weapons and resources realistically, feeling every shudder in your hands as you take hold of your destiny. The camera, constantly shifting between the up-close first-person view and the expansiveness of third-person view, gives you a brutally intense experience of every moment.
 
  1. KEY FEATURES:
 
  • Nine Real Characters: Each character is based on actors who were digitally captured using motion capture and facial scanning. Forget simple skins; their stories, scars, and secrets blaze the trail into the unknown.
  • Organic and chilling environments: From the grim motel hallways to sinister experimental facilities, every location is filled with details that will immerse you in horror.

  • Top-notch soundtrack and effects: With an exclusive vocal track by legendary rock band Sôber and a playlist curated by the talented ANBR music, we'll prove that rock and horror go hand in hand. Plus, both will be playable characters (ANBR music as Samael Tselios and Carlos Escobedo as Carlos Miller). You’ll experience all this in a terrifying atmosphere filled with sounds and effects that will remind you that you're not alone down there and that something could always jump out of the shadows.
