Unmask

​​

The truth is buried. The clock is ticking. And someone is watching.

Two years ago, a brilliant university biology student purchased a large quantity of black-market embryos to prove his radical theory—that human and animal genes could be combined. His secret experiments flourished in an underground laboratory, hidden beneath the campus where no one would ever look. Then she found out. A fellow student accidentally discovered his horrific work. To protect his secret, he silenced her forever. Her body was hidden. Her case went cold. The police called it a missing person—another mystery never solved. Until now.

A few days ago, you and your fellow biology students received a chilling text message. Anonymous. Untraceable. It directed you to a secret underground operation room. Your mission: unearth a hidden incident known to no one else on earth. You have 60 minutes to unveil the truth.

The laboratory waits in total darkness. The air is thick. Something moves in the corner of your eye. The puzzles are linear, but you can move back and forth through the multi-room configuration as the horrifying story unfolds around you. If you fail… a nightmare may be awaiting you. Can you unmask the professor before he returns?
