About The Anomaly Experiment

Sentenced to life in prison for your crimes, you’ve been given a rare and unexpected chance at freedom. The offer is simple but unsettling: participate in a highly experimental trial for a new drug designed to treat memory loss. In exchange, your sentence will be commuted. It’s an opportunity most would jump at, but nothing comes without a price.The experiment seems straightforward. You’ll take the drug, enter an experiment room, and observe your surroundings. When you leave and return, you must identify what has changed and enter it into the computer system. Complete all three experiment rooms successfully, and you’ll earn your freedom.But as the test progresses, the rooms begin to feel less like controlled environments and more like a nightmare. Is it the drug? The experiment? Or something more sinister lurking in the shadows?Freedom is within your grasp, but can you trust your own mind to get you there?
  • Estimated Gameplay Time: Completion time varies, but the game is designed to be finished in approximately 3 hours or longer.
  • Explore Three Unique Rooms: Each room offers a distinct environment filled with dozens of object anomalies and events to discover.
  • Deadly Threats: Encounter many dangerous threats, each requiring a specific strategy to overcome. Failing to respond correctly will result in death.
  • Survive or Restart: Failing to identify anomalies correctly will cost you lives. If you run out of lives, you’ll be killed and must restart from the beginning of the current room.
  • Room Progression: Successfully completing a room unlocks the next. To finish the game, you must unlock and complete all three rooms and face a final task.
  • Permanent Room Unlocks: Progression is permanent; once a room is unlocked, it remains accessible, allowing you to restart from that room without needing to replay previous sections.
  • Discover the Story: The deeper you progress, the more the story unfolds. Find hidden details throughout your play to fully reveal the truth behind the experiment.
  • Two Difficulty Modes:
  • Standard Difficulty: The intended gameplay experience.
  • Hard Difficulty: A significant challenge for those seeking a more intense experience.

What Steam players say

Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.

✦ AI summary

Players appreciate the game's unique psychological horror concept and find it genuinely challenging and scary when learning the threat mechanics, though some enjoy the discovery process. However, common complaints center on unclear instructions for dealing with threats, punishing difficulty spikes from instant kills and entity spawning directly on players, and anomalies that are too minor or boring to spot without extensive searching. The lack of guidance on threat survival mechanics forces trial-and-error gameplay that feels unfair rather than engaging.

As an Anomaly Game enjoyer, this one really missed all the marks that made them good, it felt like you had to be punished for every tiny mistake you mistake, and you couldn't skip it. Lets start with the Anomalies, they were minor, boring and very tiny details missing which wouldn't be so bad but you also had to deal with Threats, some that force you to stare at them, some that force you to look away from them, just general annoyances that make it a bit too pesky to check every inch and corner of the area. The threats wouldn't be so problematic if we had a clear guide on how to deal with them, you are given no info on how to deal with each threat unless you can read the split second loading screen tips that tell you. When you get gassed in the chamber for being incorrect you have to wait through an unskippable 30+ second blaring alarm you can't skip, you can't pause to quit to the menu, you just have to hear a loud uncomfortable noise the entire time. Anomaly games where you walk around have to have a bit of extra content that makes the location memorable, just throwing a bunch of gun assets and double tea pots around a room make it boring and bland.

This game has a lot of unique elements, and overall is really fun (if slightly rage inducing). It can be challenging trying to figure out how to survive each entity while also looking for anomalies, but learning and figuring things out is both scary and fun. I did have issues with some entities spawning directly on top of me and insta kill me, which started to feel more unfair than anything else, but aside from that had a fun time!

Fun scary times. I enjoyed it. Challenging to spot anomalies without being killed.
Recommended Jun 15, 2025
Played two versions of the game, the current version is a lot easier to understand what is an anomaly and what isn't. I am not a real fan of anomaly game but i had a blast playing this game and will continue giving a tried sometime just to challenge myself to complete the game. There are threats that do not count as anomalies that are kinda fun but challenging to go against the first time as the game doesn't really explain how to and you just happen to guess it while playing it.
