The Tower on the Borderland

Developed by DascuMaru

A horror game inspired by Super Metroid and The House on the Borderland. Explore, survive and escape from a mysterious tower, inhabited by ghouls and monsters.

Storyline

The Tower on the Borderland is an atmospheric horror game, set in a gargantuan labyrinth.

You play as Erin, a special ops soldier who finds herself trapped in an otherworldly domain. Explore and find a way to escape from this haunted and imposing structure which looms ominously over the wasteland. The Tower is infested with grotesque insects and ghouls, as well as your demonic former squadmates. Meanwhile, a mysterious stranger is on a personal quest towards the Tower as well, carrying a burden that may aid in Erin's desperate attempt to survive.

KEY FEATURES
Action-horror gameplay and combat, with a careful consideration when to fight and when to flee.

Gather weaponry and equipment to even the odds.

Use your Radio to map out the Tower and make contact with your former squadmates.

A PlayStation 1 inspired visual style, with gritty lo-fi textures and ambience.
