Metel

About

Metel is a first-person survival horror game where stealth and timing keep you alive. You’re trapped in a decaying house owned by a violent stalker who patrols blind spots and reacts to noise. Exploration revolves around hiding in furniture, waiting through footsteps, and mapping escape routes while avoiding direct contact. The camera often narrows to tense close-ups, amplifying the dread of being discovered. Puzzle elements are minimal, replaced by environmental clues that hint at the captor’s twisted mind. The game’s strength lies in its claustrophobic atmosphere and unpredictable chase sequences. With versions on PC and mobile, it adapts to both high-end hardware and touch controls, though the latter can feel awkward in frantic moments. Early access reviews on Steam note polarized reactions, some praise the relentless tension, others find the gameplay repetitive. Still, its raw, low-budget style appeals to fans of psychological thrillers over polished action.
