Your main task is to get out of this house and escape as far as possible from this nightmare.
You must be careful when you are trying to escape, the maniac can hear you and come to you to check if everything is in place, before he arrives you must hide all the evidence of the escape and return to the cage so that the maniac does not find you badly. When a maniac comes, he first of all checks whether you are on the spot or not, then he suspects that you tried to escape, and if he does not find evidence of escape, then the maniac leaves and leaves you alone, but if he noticed at least one piece of evidence you have sent, for example, a box you opened or a forgotten open door, he will punish you by applying an electric current to your metal cage.
You have three attempts to escape, and do not try to go one-on-one with the maniac, you have no chance.
The game will have four levels, and in each level you will play for different victims, learning the history of the victims and how it all started.

Metel - Horror Escape is a first-person survival horror game developed and published by Linked Squad that places players in the role of a captive desperately searching for a way out of a secluded prison controlled by a ruthless maniac. Rather than focusing on combat or fast-paced action, the game builds its identity around stealth, observation, and puzzle-solving, creating a slow-burning horror experience where every decision carries weight. The premise is straightforward, but the mechanics transform a familiar escape scenario into an engaging challenge that constantly tests the player's patience, awareness, and ability to remain calm under pressure. The game's strongest feature is its unique approach to escaping captivity. Players cannot simply collect items and sprint toward freedom because every action leaves behind evidence that the kidnapper can notice. Cabinets left open, missing objects, or unlocked doors may reveal that someone has been exploring the house, forcing players to carefully restore the environment before hiding once again. This mechanic creates an unusual layer of strategy that goes beyond traditional horror games. Every successful step forward requires thought…

If your a person who likes solving puzzles and likes those games where you have to memorize things then this is for you. METEL in my opinion is one of the best games I have ever played since 2020 when it came out the game was completely fun and sometimes horrifying but also great and I wish they make a sequel to this amazing game. P.S. Thanks Linked Squad for everything.
