About The Fan

The Fan is an interactive photo fiction with real locations and actors.

Follow the story of "The Fan", a serial killer abducting women to fulfill his dark fantasies. His latest catch lies in his basement but she's not ready yet. Everything needs to be perfect for the ritual, when he'll show her "True love".

The fan is a first person exploration game with a unique twist. Driven by a creepy and unsettling atmosphere, it will take you deep within the darkest places of Paris underground.

Gameplay



The Fan is a short experience. It takes about an hour to see all endings.

The Fan is entirely made with photos. It has a classic "point and click" feel, using only left and right click but it's closer to the recent Telltale Game series than to traditional adventures games. There are no painful mini-games or artificially inserted sliding puzzles as it is more about discovery and choices. Find out more about the Killer and his victims as the story unfolds and you may be the one to ultimately decide their fate.

WARNING: The game isn't rated yet but I wouldn't recommend if if you're under 16, due to the themes and some violent sequences.

More About Me



My name is Cyril and I'm a Frenchie indie game dev. The Fan is my first released game ever =)

The game was created using Unity Personal Edition and mostly Lightroom for the pictures. I started the project in 2012 and did all the shootings, which was really fun, but when it came to actually "make a game", well, it took much more time, effort, tutorials, training and hard work than I expected :D
Although The Fan is a pretty short experience (there are no overly twisted puzzles to keep you from going fast if you wanna rush it), it took thousands of pictures and a tremendous amount of work to make it look good enough. So please, tell me what you think!

Feel free to contact me directly if you have any question or comment, I'll be happy to answer!

It was pretty good, short and cheap it had some disturbing moments but it wasn't that disturbing overall. 7.5/10

ever wanted to kidnap someone? well, now you can! wanted to slit her boyfriend's throat? well, now you can! wanted to dig through people's stuff? well, now you can! and the fact that it's all presented through photographs with no traditional "game graphics" somehow makes it even stranger. i can't say i didn't enjoy it, though. it's actually really well made, and at the end SPOILER, [spoiler]you do get caught and lose, so, like... justice, I guess.[/spoiler] but seriously, some people are going to be hella uncomfortable playing this game. it's also really short, so try to inspect everything you can. i'd recommend going into the settings and turning on the clickable identifiers, or whatever they're called, so you don't miss anything. id say the price tag is justified because they had to physically make the sets, and that's really unique

Weirdest game I might have ever played. Its very short and has 3 different endings, if I haven't missed one. You play it once, get disturbed and play it never again, can't recommend. Buy yourself a doner kebab instead.
Not recommended Sep 7, 2026
I thought this was a game. It isn't, don't buy. I played it solely to get the trading cards. At least the value of the cards covered the cost, so I basically got the game for free. (*__*)

Super fun creepy little game. Always cool to see someone take a chance on something so off beat. Would love to see a big budget version of this. Top class, 8/10
