If you thought Buckshot Roulette was intense, get ready—developer Mike Klubnika is back with another chilling experience. His upcoming psychological horror game, Split, is set to release next month on July 24 for Windows, SteamOS, and Linux.
💻 What Is Split?
Split throws players into a grim, dystopian world where you take on the role of an old-school hacker. You're part of a team working to infiltrate a dark, unethical superstructure using only text-based terminal commands. No flashy interface—just you, your keyboard, and a race against the unknown.
This isn’t a game of flashy action or jump scares. Instead, it leans hard into psychological tension, command-line puzzles, and the isolation of digital space. The gameplay mixes hacking mechanics with conversations through a simulated IRC chatroom, creating a claustrophobic and eerie environment.
🧩 Gameplay Highlights
- Type-based command puzzles – Solve problems like a real hacker, typing commands into a terminal interface.
- Mock IRC communication – Chat with in-game technicians as the story unfolds around you.
- Industrial atmosphere – A moody soundtrack sets the tone for a bleak and immersive experience.
🕹 A New Take on Horror
Rather than direct violence or gore, Split focuses on psychological discomfort and a creeping sense of unease. The cryptic teaser line—"Regardless of the outcome, your story won't be told for decades"—only adds to the mystery.
📅 Release Info
- Release Date: Thursday, July 24, 2025
- Platforms: Windows, SteamOS, Linux (via Steam)
📺 Final Thoughts
Whether you're a fan of Buckshot Roulette or simply love eerie, cerebral indie horror games, Split looks like one to watch. Get your fingers ready—this isn’t point-and-click horror. This is terminal terror.
