Description
About This Game
Children have begun disappearing from the farms nearby.
Some say they simply got lost. Others claim to have seen a man wandering between the trees at night, carrying a huge sack on his back.
Inspired by the Argentine folklore legend of The Boogeyman, this first-person horror game puts you in the role of Daniel, a father determined to stay awake all night to protect his son, Benjamín.
The house is locked. Benjamín is asleep in his room.
But outside, somewhere in the field, something is moving.
FIND HIM BEFORE YOU GO OUTSIDE
The property is large, and the darkness hides far more than you can see from your window.
Set up security cameras, proximity alarms, and different surveillance systems to monitor the area and figure out where The Boogeyman is.
Even the animals on your farm can help you watch places that fixed cameras cannot reach.
Every time you need to leave the safety of your house, ask yourself one question first:
Where is he?
EXPLORE THE FARM
As the night goes on, different events will force you to step outside.
Explore dirt roads, sheds, corrals, the windmill, and overgrown areas while trying to stay away from whatever is roaming in the darkness.
Listen for the alarms.
Check the cameras.
Pay attention to every sound.
And choose your route carefully.
Because if you run into The Boogeyman unprepared, you may not have enough time to make it back home.
YOU ARE NOT COMPLETELY ALONE
Your neighbor Pablo is also staying awake that night.
Using walkie-talkies and flashlight signals, you can watch over each other’s properties and warn one another if something strange appears.
But as the night grows darker, it becomes harder and harder to understand what is really happening outside.
PROTECT BENJAMÍN
Everything you do that night has one purpose:
keep The Boogeyman away from your son.
Watch the property, use everything you have prepared, and discover what is happening on the neighboring farms before it is too late.
Because maybe the stories you heard as a child...
were never just stories.
Tonight, The Boogeyman is looking for his next victim.
