After playing a cursed cartridge, you find yourself stranded inside a maze-like liminal space that has claimed the lives of many before you! Navigate the twisted maze, solve puzzles, uncover the mystery of the labyrinth, and escape a terrifying enemy in this hair-raising journey into the unknown!

Classic Retro visuals!
Experience a spine-tingling adventure with graphics and gameplay reminiscent of beloved 90s horror titles!

A Chilling Story!
Uncover the dark secrets of a cursed game cartridge and its deadly maze. Evade a terrifying monster out for your blood and survive the twisted traps of a mysterious child that haunts your steps. Immerse yourself in a heart-pounding journey full of mystery and terror as you unearth the truth behind the labyrinth.

Puzzles and Challenges!
Solve intricate puzzles to progress through the game, each one more twisted and mind bending than the last!

Tense survival Gameplay!
Experience heart-pounding tension as you methodically evade ‘Mr String’, a relentless stalker enemy lurking in the shadows. Run for your life in exciting chases and summon the courage to confront the beast head-on in a thrilling climax.

Environmental Storytelling!
Discover hidden notes and clues that reveal the morbid fates of those who came before you, and unearth the secrets that reveal the true nature of the maze.

Retro Horror Story is not for the faint of heart. With its unnerving atmosphere, unyielding tension, and relentless enemies, this game will test your resolve and your wits. Do you have what it takes to survive?

Retro Horror Story is a short, simple but relatively well made horror game where you must run from a monster while trapped inside a nightmare maze based video game. Pros + Decent Little Story/Dialogue + Intense Running Away From Monster + Not Frustrating To Play + Boss Fights Fun if Basic Cons - A little too generic but not bad for a small dev teams - Quite short Overall Retro Horror Story is a inoffensive horror game, with fun chases, simple puzzles and some good boss battles. For a small dev team it's a good effort 6/10 +

R.H.S. is a nostalgia trip through memory lane. A creepy, unsettling voyage to a PS1 era of gaming. Absolutely recommend if you love a short but concise game. If you want to check it for yourself, press the link below: https://youtu.be/6nuQFJZ_UnY

Nothing too fancy. Just a simple little horror game that doesn't take very long to complete and I like the art style. The game doesn't really have any setting and I had to unplug my second monitor because the cursor was still active, but it's whatever. Also it sounds like the monster is saying a certain slur whenever it attacks you so maybe keep that in mind.
