Buried

About

Buried is a tense, first-person survival puzzle game where you wake up trapped underground with no memory of how you got there. Your phone’s flashlight flickers as you explore a cramped, wooden-walled space, scavenging for tools and clues while battling depleting oxygen and battery. Every interaction feels urgent, tapping objects, navigating tight spaces, and solving environmental puzzles to unlock exits. Time crunches as both resources drain, forcing quick thinking to avoid suffocating in the dark. The game thrives on claustrophobic atmosphere and relentless pressure. With a runtime under two hours, it leans into short bursts of panic and discovery, making every second count. Player reviews highlight its ability to stick with you long after finishing, thanks to its unsettling tone and cleverly hidden solutions. Released in late October 2023, it’s a brief but gripping experience that uses simplicity to its advantage.

You are running low on oxygen and your battery is running out, you do not have much time. Will you escape, or is this your final resting place?
