About THRESHOLD

✦ AI summary

THRESHOLD puts you in the role of a railway worker at a remote mountain station where every breath is precious, managing your oxygen while maintaining the train schedule and uncovering the mysteries of this unsettling place. Your choices shape a branching narrative that explores themes of labor, survival, and moral compromise as you navigate tasks, ration resources, and decide what questions are safe to ask.


Breathe in.


High in the mountains, an endless train thunders through a decaying station. This is the Border Post. Your job is simple: blow a whistle to keep the train on schedule. But the air is thin up here.

Don’t speak. Don’t run. Don’t look in the train. Just do your job. It’ll all be over soon.

FIGHT FOR EVERY BREATH


It isn’t impossible to breathe in the Border Post. Just impossible to catch your breath. Every exertion is another foot in the grave. Each blow of your whistle is a death sentence. Your only reprieve are air canisters rationed out for your good work. So you better be a good worker.

MAINTAIN


There’s no shortage of tasks to keep you busy during your shift. Deliver reports. Clean the water filter. Collect discarded wood. And don’t worry about that smell.

MEET MO


Mo is your friend and fellow Border Post worker. His shift is over, but he’ll happily come running if you call. He’ll answer any questions you might have. Well, except for that question. He wouldn’t lie to you. Don’t make him.

YOUR CHOICES, YOUR STORY


Your choices matter. Which choices? What country are you from? How could it matter? Experience a semi-linear narrative where every moment could be a new branching path. Or not. Such is life.

Breathe out.

What Steam players say

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

✦ AI summary

Players praise the atmospheric world-building, visual and sound design, and the meaningful player choice that impacts the story in substantial ways, with some finding the relatively short playtime rewarding for multiple playthroughs. However, many criticize technical bugs that cause frustrating restarts, a thin or underwhelming narrative despite the choice mechanics, and limited replay value once outcomes are discovered. The game divides players between those captivated by its hypnotic, repetitive exploration and those disappointed by the lack of narrative depth.

Babby's first moral dilemma. Teases some interesting places to go and devolves into blunt, unimaginative propaganda. And I say this as someone willing to play propaganda pieces on subjects I disagree with the text about. My problem is with the execution. If you are an adult and/or not getting high for the first time in your life, there are far better examples of this kind of thing out there. However, I will say that as a pure game it's decent and the aesthetics are good. I encourage the dev to keep making stuff but maybe, idk, read some books or something first.

This game had an interesting build up that really kept me intrigued as the game progressed. It completely lost me when the reveal for it came. The entire game was building up to [spoiler]some stupid vegan message about how eating meat is bad[/spoiler]. I also don't understand why this game is tagged with horror. Yeah, there's blood and guts and maybe one jump scare but that's it. The only thing that's horrific about this game is the 58 minutes of my life I'm not getting back.

I have mixed feelings about this game. I'm not exactly a huge fan of psychological horror. A lot of games in this genre, including Threshold, get pretty psychedelic and weird. That said, there are a few games like this that I've genuinely enjoyed. I had a great time playing Arctic Eggs, for example. Threshold has a fairly interesting story, and the world it presents is bleak, unsettling, and full of a strange atmosphere. I can't say I had a bad time playing it, but I also wouldn't call it a particularly memorable experience. I'd recommend it to fans of this kind of game, but probably not to anyone else.

A Short but sweet little horror game. It's unique premise and slow unraveling keeps you wanting more as your situation unfolds.

Creepy and clever

Games like Dying Light are easy to find if you only want parkour or only want zombies. These eight keep the part that matters: a city that becomes a different place after dark.

Games like Portal 2 all share one habit: teach a single impossible trick, then spend a campaign breaking it. From rewinding objects through time to Escher geometry that loops back on itself.

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
