About The Unworthy
The Unworthy is a cinematic first-person horror game. It's based on the account of a man who believed he went to Hell during a near-death experience. You wake somewhere between life and Hell, something in the dark has already judged you, and you have to prove you deserve to go back.
It has a realistic, neo-noir look and heavy use of spatial sound. You follow clues through different locations, and the entities you meet each have their own rules. Some events are partly random. A courage-based judgement system tracks how you face your fear, and there are multiple endings and several modes, including a Liminal Mode.
