CASE: Animatronics

Released: 8/3/2016

Welcome to the police department, where late work can lead to tragic consequences. You're a swamped with work detective - John Bishop who carries out his investigation till the late night. After a strange dream he gets awaken up by a mysterious call from an old “friend” and everything goes sideways. The police department is left without electricity, security system has been hacked and all exits are locked. But that is not the real problem. Someone is following you, someone red-eyed and made of steel. You better know them as animatronics. Figure out what is going on and remember - no one will hear you scream.
