dead END

The game is best played on a PC - the web version works but is fairly sluggish when sounds or lights are involved. Please, download the Windows version in case you have trouble running the web version!

We apologise for the inconvenience

A train crashed in the desert, out of nowhere. You were there when that happened. 

And you won't leave any stone unturned to find out the truth.

A truth that might end up on a dead end.

Controls

The game is best played with a joypad, but supports keyboard and mouse controls too. If you play the Web Version with a mouse, put the game full screen or the mouse will not work properly!

Notes

This game was made in around two weeks for the Secret Santa Game Jam 2024 from the Dev Zone server community. As a result, this game is a short experience - one playthrough is between 5 and 20 minutes.

The wishlist that generated this game:

• Involves a train
• Is puzzling or mysterious
• Makes some use of photo textures or photo sprites
• Has a hidden cat
• Allows me to inspect a trinket or mundane prop
