Hallways

About

In Hallways you guard a central room while an unseen enemy prowls connected hallways. You have limited power to illuminate paths and seal doors, forcing you to prioritize which routes to monitor. Each decision raises tension as the attacker moves closer, demanding careful resource management and timing. The game strips survival horror down to its strategic core, turning every flicker of light into a calculated risk. What sets Hallways apart is its minimalist design that amplifies psychological pressure. With just one developer and a June 2024 release date, it already shows sharp pacing and tight controls. Players describe it as a "mental endurance test" where mistakes feel earned. While short, the experience packs enough suspense to make each playthrough feel like a high-stakes chess match against darkness. Runs on PC only, no multiplayer.
