BrokenLore: DON’T PLAY is a horror video game developed and published by Serafini Productions.

About

BrokenLore: DON’T PLAY is a first-person psychological horror game that follows Hideo, a young hikikomori obsessed with video games and the need for recognition. When he receives a mysterious experimental console in the mail, he decides to play it, convinced it could change his life.

But each level brings increasingly unsettling consequences into the real world. His apartment begins to shift, time starts to distort, and something dark slowly emerges as the line between what he plays and what he lives begins to break down.

Across five levels that draw Hideo deeper into his obsession, BrokenLore: DON’T PLAY takes him on a disturbing psychological descent, exploring themes of alienation, the need for validation, and identity loss.

In this new installment, players will once again encounter familiar characters:

• Junko (the protagonist of BrokenLore: DON’T LIE)
