About PhobLack

PhobLack is a first-person horror exploration game that invites you into the abyss of fear.

In 1980, a plane crashed in the mountainous region of America.
As the only survivor, you must contact the rescue team and request rescue.
Your mapping skills will be tested.

Warning: Please read


What you are exploring is not just a mansion.
It is a ruin filled with curses and conspiracies, where paranormal phenomena that rob you of your sanity swirl.
Avoid the darkness and act calmly.

Game Features

  • Dark and eerie ruins: Explore places where fear breathes.
  • Mysterious security: Numerous inexplicable mechanisms await.
  • Flashlight: Adjustable light intensity (occasionally flickers).
  • Sanity system: Sanity decreases when you feel fear, keeping calm is the key.

If it is too dark, please adjust the brightness from the settings.
When using a controller, the UI is controlled with the cross buttons.
If you have items such as keys in your possession, they will be used automatically by simply pressing the button toward the door.

PhobLack is one of those rare horror games that manages to keep me on edge the entire time. Super well done. Everything felt incredibly intense and ominous in my first run. Intro is also absurdly well made too. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3326072281 The puzzles are pretty challenging in my opinion, especially on the first playthrough. I had absolutely no idea where/what to do or go, but that also boosted the levels of intensity. I'm a bit disappointed in the map, it gave me absolutely nothing no matter how many times I looked at it. It felt overly cluttered, could be intended that way, I'm not sure. It might be, honestly. Overall, I feel like PhobLack might be more suited for hardcore horror fans, if you're completely new to the horror genre, I doubt you would enjoy this. It feels too niche for that and most mechanics are designed to be unforgiving. But I'm sure many people that are well into the horror genre will enjoy this, it has something very strong about it's intensity that most other games fail to create. I loved it all the way through though, it kept me on my toes the entire time and it's VERY good for a solo project. I'm excited to see what…

I had to refund this game. I gave it a fair shot, and I played as far as I could keep my sanity intact with it. The intro was really impressive, but as soon as you step into the building everything starts becoming...more prototype state. There's no exterio any longer, the building is floating in midair, there was bugs left and right, there's very little clear intention of the gameplay and it becomes needlessly difficult for the sake of potentially just dragging out the time. This game has the elements of being good, but at some point it just felt like it stopped trying. Where was the effort from the beginning? I hope people realize it's better to give some negative reviews with constructive criticism so the game has a chance to shine, instead of risking ending up in "cult hell" which has happened too many times before. I believe in you dev! You can make this game really shine! Just right now, it isn't and due to its prototype state of gameplay, I refunded. If the game does get improved, I'm rebuying it ASAP tho.

amazing game for $5 and I even paid under 3 for this. puzzles, exploring, you can easily get away from the infrequent encounters with the ghost and one chase you have can be done easily if you set up your environment before hand.

Cool and intriguing intro, after that this game feels so empty. I scare pretty easily, but I was so bored I couldn't bring myself to finish.
