Ad Infinitum

Ad Infinitum is a first-person horror game that offers an intensely told story centred around the horrors of the First World War, embedded in a family drama in which players take on the role of the long-lost son of the von Schmitt family. In the game, players switch between two main worlds in which reality and delusion blur. The game is driven by solving puzzles built into the narrative, revealing the dark secrets of the von Schmitt family.

Ad Infinitum builds a balanced arc of suspense that cleverly uses classic horror elements. Ghostly shadows, screams and séances create a permanently oppressive atmosphere. Particularly noteworthy is the exceptionally good sound design, which enhances the psychological horror. The theme of post-traumatic stress disorder is treated in an exciting and authentic way. A game that gets under your skin and couldn’t be more topical given the current political situation.
