The Devil is in the Details

About

The Devil is in the Details drops you into a shifting hellhouse where every room feels like a puzzle and every shadow hides danger. As a first-person survival game, you scavenge talismans to purify cursed objects while fending off traps, demons, and the devil’s cruel surprises. Resources are scarce and the layout changes between runs, turning exploration into a high-stakes gamble. You’ll memorize patterns, manage fear, and hope the next corner doesn’t drop you into a new nightmare. What grabs attention is how it twists escape-room logic into a tense, unpredictable grind. The procedural design ensures backtracking never feels repetitive, and the blend of environmental puzzles with sudden horror attacks keeps pressure constant. HideWorks leans into the chaos, letting the devil’s pranks dictate the tone, like a haunted house that rewrites its own rules. Out on PC and PS5 September 30, it’s a 10-15 hour gauntlet for players who thrive on adapting to the unrelentingly unfair.
