The Event

The Event is a first-person psychological horror game developed by a third-party studio. The player takes the role of a protagonist who wakes up in an asylum with no memory of their identity or how they arrived. The aim is to reconstruct what happened to them, and to the other people present on the day in question, by gathering clues, notes and testimonies scattered throughout the building.

The game does not provide the player with any weapons. When confronted by antagonists, the only options are to run or hide. The story is not delivered directly; instead, players must explore the asylum to uncover the truth themselves. The protagonist has a defined personality, and their thoughts can be consulted by interacting with the environment and finding items, which serves as an aid to solving the narrative.

Additional features include detailed graphics and sound design intended to support exploration of the setting, along with encounters designed to catch the player off guard. The developer notes that the game contains scenes of violence, gore and disturbing environments.
