First Task

First Task is a psychological horror game where you find yourself navigating an unsettling job interview at a mysterious company. What starts as a routine assessment slowly descends into bizarre and disturbing tests, as you are confronted with strange tasks that challenge your logic, morality, and sanity.

Stages of the Interview

The interview consists of multiple stages:

  • Stage 1: Standard logical puzzles and quick decision-making tasks.
  • Stage 2: Ethical dilemmas, pushing you to answer morally complex questions.
  • Stage 3: Psychological pressure tests that delve into your darkest fears.

Handling Dangerous Anomalies

As you progress, you'll be introduced to a world of deadly anomalies that the company works with. You will encounter internal divisions responsible for managing these threats:

  • SAC: Safe Anomaly Containment.
  • LAN: Lifeless Anomaly Neutralization.
  • DAM: Dangerous Anomaly Management.

Incident Reports

Throughout the interview, you'll be exposed to records of tragic incidents involving previous employees. These include:

  • Mental breakdowns caused by exposure to psychoactive anomalies.
  • Fatal attacks by aggressive entities during experiments.
  • Severe injuries from anomalous energy and substances.

Final Instructions

After successfully completing the interview, you’ll be briefed on the company's rules for handling anomalous objects. Gather your belongings and prepare for extraction — but remember, surviving this place is just the beginning.

Played your game in my series and I have to say it was really scary and the game made me go what the heck at random points lol anyways good job and good scare and cant wait to see what else you create!

Fun game that plays into the scary psychology of working a 9-5 for the SCP haha. Great jumpscares, good vibes, and the distant nature of the games meaning plays well into scp and backrooms type lore. 

I give more in depth feedback in my  video below, and if you want you can vote for your game on my channel to move forward in the bracket for best indie horror game of january- I'll be printing a monster or scene from the winners game, and printing your jumpscare would be hilarious and fun.
