Overview
Mater Abyss plunges players into a chilling first-person psychological horror narrative, presented entirely through the unsettling lens of found footage. Set in July 1993, the game begins with the mysterious disappearance of the Romano family. Weeks later, a single videotape surfaces from their apartment, and this recording forms the core of the player's experience.
Players step into the shoes of Agata, a psychology student tasked with documenting the Romano family's residence. What initially appears to be a straightforward investigation quickly devolves into a disorienting and terrifying ordeal.
The apartment itself becomes an antagonist, with its spaces shifting, sounds echoing unnervingly, and inexplicable presences making themselves known. As the environment warps and reality bends, players will confront the chilling realization that they are no longer alone.
