What is Поріг страху?
Поріг страху is a short but intense Ukrainian horror visual novel set in a world where the shadows find themselves in physical forms. A lone traveler unearthing an abandoned house deep within the woods will unravel a chilling and creepy story where every step could send chills of terror rushing to your veins. There are three endings, and your choices influence how the story is told—and if you even survive it.
Created for the Ukrainian Micro Visual Novel Jam, this bite-sized experience (just 10 minutes long) delivers atmosphere through haunting writing and sound design.
How To Play
- Interact with the story by making text choices.
- Your decisions affect which of three endings you get to see.
- Keep an eye out for details in the environment; they may be clues to lurking danger or a way out.
Tips and Tricks
- Investigate everything: Some endings are triggered when you have perceived subtle hints within the house.
- Take your time: With a runtime this brief, each moment is carrying weight.
- Test and retest with your own hands: Discover all conclusions and fit them into the big picture.
History
Created by Max Telecaster (writer/composer) and Eugene Lenko (programmer) for a game jam that showcased the Ukrainian Indie Horror spirit. Its micro-format asserts that fear needs no extensive runtime, just a succinct narrative and a menacing atmosphere.
(Note: "Play Unblocked" was omitted as the game’s format (visual novel) typically doesn’t involve blocking mechanics.)
