Lost and stranded, your only hope in Infrared lies in refueling your car. This simple goal, however, quickly escalates into a desperate fight for survival as you venture into a desolate forest.
The woods are not empty; something malevolent lurks just beyond the veil of perception.
Your primary tools for navigating this terrifying environment are a flashlight and a camera. The camera is more than just a recording device; it's your key to survival, capable of capturing infrared light that reveals hidden entities invisible to the naked eye.
As you progress and get closer to uncovering the secrets of a sinister church, a hostile presence intensifies, making every step a gamble.
Infrared blends survival horror with a retro aesthetic, reminiscent of 1990s gaming. The low-poly blood and occasional unsettling visuals contribute to its chilling atmosphere.
With permadeath as a core mechanic, every decision carries weight, and failure means starting anew. The game features multiple endings, encouraging replayability as you uncover different outcomes based on your actions.
