About the Game
You and your team are tasked with closing a dangerous interdimensional portal before it unleashes a powerful and destructive force. With no weapons to defend yourself, you must rely on exploration, puzzle-solving, and stealth to navigate through the hotel and alternate dimensions while avoiding a deadly creature that stalks your every move.
Unique Multiplayer Experience:
- Compared to other co-op horror games, Ominous offers a unique multiplayer experience. While you and your teammates share the same map, you exist in separate dimensions, unaware of each other's locations, even if you're standing side by side. The challenge lies in finding a way to bring everyone into your dimension.
Creature:
- The Creature is completely aware of your presence and will actively try to stop you from closing the interdimensional portal. The main difference is that, while you and your teammates cannot see each other in different dimensions, the Creature can see all of you.
Rifts:
- There are dimensional rifts scattered throughout the map, a result of the damage caused by the creature's portal. When you enter these rifts, you may find yourself in entirely different environments. To escape these environments, you have two options: solve the puzzle inside or die. These rifts can even transport you to a poker table. Winning a game at the table will grant you a prize upon your return, but losing might lead to less desirable outcomes.
Replayability:
- When you start each game, the map is procedurally generated so that you never get the feeling that you are playing on the same map. The end time of the game will be different for each game. The only way to find out when the Creature's portal will explode is when the portal makes a sound that can be heard all over the map 5 minutes before it explodes. However, this sound can appear as early as 15 minutes or as late as 30 minutes into the game, so you should always act quickly.

User Reviews
Needs some work - the game plays well (when you can see all the items - one of our team could not). Improvement Thoughts It needs some more jump scares or weird sounds to increase the ambient mood., such as things in cupboards / drawers that make sounds. Locked doors would be a great addition, so you have to find a keys along the way. Add in a visible timer in the portal room, so you know how much time you have left. I think there is a lot of potential - hopefully the devs will listen to comments and improve the game.
I'd be less offended if it was a bitcoin miner
I really think the dev is onto something with this game!!! Ran into a couple of glitches [sat down at the bar and proceeded to float into space and then sat in one of the computer chairs only to freeze the game]. Had a great time with my friends and I can't wait to see more in the future!! IN GAME SPOILER: [spoiler] Finding the TARDIS was the COOLEST little surprise!! To that I say, Allonsy! [/spoiler]
