Description
Imagine a world created out of insanity – deformed children, ancient gods, ghosts from your past in the house inside of a water reflection. You are an asylum patient and you have just survived a car crash – the problem is you can't remember anything. Visions reveal answers to some questions, but create even more riddles! Which part of it is true? What do all these things mean?

Sanitarium is one of the few psychological horror adventure games. As the protagonist you will visit five different worlds full of riddles and answers, with which you will have to figure out what exactly is happening and what is real. The story is so incredibly good and enthralling that it could easily drive a sane person mad.
  • One of the most immersive and chilling psychological horror games ever created
  • Discover what your warped mind is hiding under the veil of a psychedelic dream
  • Explore surreal worlds inhabited by crazy, half-sane and or half-dead characters

A legendary point-click adventure.

Actually, I don't like adventure games so much, they looks like boring for me and I'm really in a boring mood when I'm playing adventure games, BUT... That game. That game is the mother of adventure games, that game never bored me. If you didn't played this, play that legend.

Unforgettable

I will remember this game forever. It's easy. You can't forget it... Fantastic mood creation and tension building, great sound environment and all the details, like small piece of paper flying through the street... Unforgettable and a must-have.
