New Teaser Demo for The Mortuary Assistant has launched on steam and itch

Milford, CT
For Immediate Release
 
DarkStone Digital has released a new teaser demo for their upcoming horror title The Mortuary Assistant today (October 20, 2021) on itch.io and Steam.

 
About the game
The Mortuary Assistant is a horror game where you take on the role of an apprentice mortician. You’ve been called into work late at night with the news of having been signed on full-time but while performing a routine embalming; it becomes obvious that something sinister is happening at River Fields mortuary.

 
The Mortuary Assistant is a unique horror experience that has the player performing embalmings on multiple bodies while experiencing paranormal events tied to the life events of protagonist Rebecca Owens and the history of the River Fields mortuary.
 
Part embalming simulator and part story-driven horror, The Mortuary Assistant brings something fresh to the horror genre.

 
Something New
The game brings an intricate system called the haunt system to the player. This system monitors the player's activities and will manifest various haunting experiences based on a number of different factors. Demonic and story events are also chosen by this system to create a different playthrough every time with different bodies, demons, and events. While the demo only gives a limited taste of this system, the haunt system is designed to provide replayability to the full game on launch while providing the player with new story elements as they become an experienced mortician.
 
About The Development
After the attention received for the original prototype of The Mortuary Assistant; solo developer Brian Clarke started working on an expanded, full version of the game after the launch of Our Secret Below back in July 2020.

 
Over time, The Mortuary Assistant has grown into a game that is a horror-simulator hybrid. Brian has focused mainly on systems that will give the player a unique experience every time. The demo is meant to give a tiny taste of that as each playthrough will give different, smaller, haunting experiences around the larger events within the demo.
 
The full game will have many different cadavers, demons, and story events for the player to discover with every playthrough.
 
The Mortuary Assistant is projected to launch in the spring of 2022.

 
WISHLIST NOW ON STEAM!
