AVAILABLE NOVEMBER 7 ON STEAM, PS5, XBOX, AND SWITCH

Explore mysterious environments, solve intricate puzzles, and uncover hidden notes that reveal the truth behind the simulated world. 

Madrid, October 8, 2025 – The Spanish independent studio Mystic Morgue announces the launch of its debut title, The Visitor Effect: Not an Experiment, available starting November 7, 2025, on Steam, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and  Nintendo Switch, with the support of publisher Dojo System.

Awakening in the Lie

 

You wake up as R3D, an alien robot trapped in a strange simulation. You don’t know who controls you or why, but something doesn’t add up. Every action can bring you closer to the truth—or drag you deeper into the lie. How far are you willing to go to escape? Dive into a complex story and uncover the hidden motives of each character. Follow the dialogues, find secret notes — they might reveal key truths. Don’t let yourself be deceived: only with the right information will you make the right decisions when the time comes.

 
The Collapse

Have you managed to break the simulation? Then you’ll have to face the General to escape the laboratory. Get ready to solve new puzzles with different mechanics while enemies and turrets hunt you down without mercy.


Quote “Development has been a real challenge. Being our first serious project, we had to learn everything on the go, balancing studies, jobs, and production. It’s been intense, but also an experience that made us grow as a team and as creators. Working with Dojo System as our publisher was a huge boost. Thanks to their support, we’ve been able to give visibility to our work and strengthen our vision as a studio. At Mystic Morgue, we want to create games with a distinct identity, crafted with care and the ambition to improve with every project.”
