    You awaken in a dingy storage room in a pile of rubble and dust. Observing your surroundings you notice a massive hole in the ceiling. How curious. Dazed from the fall and mildy confused you venture into the twisted depths of the Heilwald Klinikum...

    The Heilwald Loophole takes the classic survival horror trope of being stuck in a run down hospital/asylum and being chased by crazed nurses and doctors but adds an important twist: It is impossible to die.

    Every action, every decision merely opens up a new pathway to venture down leading you deeper into the Heilwald Klinikum.

    How far does it go? And what is that god damn loophole about?

    Really interesting progression and not too long. The soundtrack/ what this game does with sound is exceptional and should be a prime exampleReally interesting progression and not too long. The soundtrack/ what this game does with sound is exceptional and should be a prime example of how important audio is in a horror title. Got less scary closer to the end but the overall atmosphere and weirdness kept me interested. A decently interesting lore/ story. Fairly unique horror game for being set in a hospital/ mental ward. Finally, the game was pretty funny at times, it balanced the humor and horror very well. My biggest praise would be for the audio elements of this game. One of the best indie titles I've played, I look forward to what Jan will work on next. Expand

The last puzzle is kinda ok but quickly losses it's charm. Overall it's an ok game with a simple play-style and some minor bugs. Expand
