Description

The Anomaly is a game about maintaining hope whilst confronting the darker aspects of humanity—namely your own. It is a game about introspection, fear, and the drive to help others.

You take on the role of the sole surviving analyst of a team of scientists and military personnel sent into The Anomaly. You have been witness to the wondrous, beautiful aspects of The Anomaly, as well as the horror and fear it can manifest. You have seen friends and colleagues—the brightest minds and the bravest fools—all fall to the mind shattering manifestations of The Anomaly.

You are alone now. Alone with Yourself. You are fighting through fear and desperation in the hope that you can escape. You are not at all sure you will succeed, but you must at least try to get word out beyond the shimmering dome of The Anomaly.

You must at least warn others.
