Description
About This Game
THE CHAPUT'S CHURCH
The Raincoat Man: Chaput’s Cradle is a first-person psychological horror game set in a remote countryside house, where you are hired to babysit under strange and unsettling circumstances. What begins as a quiet night quickly turns into a disturbing experience, as the environment feels wrong, the baby behaves unnaturally, and a silent presence seems to watch from reflections and shadows.
As Samantha, you must explore the house and its surroundings, piece together fragmented information, and survive a night filled with tension, paranoia, and fear. The game focuses on atmosphere and slow-burn horror rather than combat, encouraging players to observe, hide, and make sense of unsettling events through environmental storytelling.
The world is small but interconnected, gradually opening up as the story unfolds. Each new area deepens the sense of dread, revealing subtle contradictions and disturbing details that challenge what you believe is happening. Mirrors, sounds, and unexpected encounters play a key role in building tension, while a mysterious figure known as the Raincoat Man looms over the experience.
Inspired by classic psychological horror and PSX-era aesthetics, The Raincoat Man: Chaput’s Cradle delivers an intimate and unsettling journey where fear is created through suggestion, silence, and uncertainty rather than constant confrontation.
