Overview

In 2020, during the height of the rainy season, a massive system failure struck a major sorting facility. Every robotic worker broke down simultaneously, and the cause remains unknown.

With the assembly line unable to stand idle, you are brought in as temporary help for just five days while tech support restores the system. Your directive is simple: clock in for five shifts, complete a few minor tasks, and head back home to your family with a clean conscience.

But this is not easy money. The facility is long overdue for a major overhaul, the power grid is pushed to its absolute limit, and strange noises echo through pitch-black corridors.

What starts as a routine temp job quickly becomes a true test of survival.

Highlights

  • First-Person Survival Horror: Experience the dread of navigating a dark, decaying facility from a first-person perspective, with atmospheric tension and unexpected scares.
  • Strategy and Simulation Elements: Manage limited resources and make tactical decisions to survive each shift, balancing tasks with self-preservation.
  • Single-Player, PvE Experience: Face the horrors alone in a single-player campaign that emphasizes personal endurance and nerve-wracking exploration.

Who It's For

If you enjoy survival horror games that focus on atmosphere and tension rather than action, File Corruption will appeal to you. It's also suited for players who appreciate strategy and simulation mechanics, as you must carefully plan your actions within each shift.

The game is designed to be played at your own pace, with no timed input required, making it accessible for those who prefer to take their time and soak in the dread.
