About Among Ashes
Among Ashes is a first-person horror game about a haunted videogame and the disturbing story behind its creation.
It’s a stormy night in the early 2000s and your friend has sent you a link to a horror game that he found online: Night Call.
But as you play, strange things start happening in your apartment.
Something is terribly wrong with this game.
Immerse yourself in the unique experience of playing a first-person horror game inside another first-person horror game.
In the retro-styled Night Call, you will explore an old manor, solve puzzles and fight off the terrifying monsters that have infested its labyrinthian halls.
In the real world, however, you’ll be haunted by the dark entities that have latched on to this strange game, as you try to unravel the mystery behind Night Call and its enigmatic creator.
Among ashes the truth remains.
Uncover it, or you may not survive the night.

The "game within a game" concept is done really well, especially how things happen in the real world at the same time. The atmosphere is great and the puzzles in it are really creative too. The Awesome Messenger adds even more to the retro feel. 👾1 found this helpful
I played the demo for this back in October 2024 and LOVED it.

The passion for all things horror and the appreciation for the horror classics of the 90s and 2000s here is readily apparent and tickles my millenial nostalgia so perfectly. The way the story and worldbuilding unfold largely in AIM/MSN messenger-style chats, "old internet"-style web pages, and online message boards is brilliant. You're playing a game within a game, and at one point you even play a game within a game WITHIN A GAME, lol. It's meta as hell and basically bakes a bunch of different style of games into one, which as someone with what I like to call "Super ADHD," I enjoy a lot. Something new around every corner. Definitely one of the most ambitious and unique indie horror games I've ever played. I will say, there are 2 chase sections much further in that are mind-numbingly frustrating and had me at the edge o…1 found this helpful
Um dos jogos que mais me deixou tenso dos últimos tempos. História bem legal, sem muita exposição desnecessária e com umas reviravoltas bem interessantes que são reveladas próximo ao final. Bem legal a dinâmica das telas e o gameplay "duplo". RECOMENDO1 found this helpful
