Litmustest is an upcoming retro survival horror game developed by Underwater Castle Inc. Inspired by late-90s survival horror classics like Resident Evil and Dino Crisis, the game combines exploration, inventory management, environmental puzzles, and tense combat that takes place inside a secret Soviet research facility.
Underwater Castle Inc. is an independent game studio based in Santiago, Chile. Litmustest is their first title.
Story
Nova Conti is a researcher at Obyekt Grovnyca, a research facility so classified it doesn’t appear on any public record. She’s working a late shift when the protocol kicks in.
A colleague calls from somewhere deep in the building, locked in with no way out, reporting that security has gone completely silent. Then the line cuts off, the exits lock, and Nova is trapped inside.
