You wake up on a cold, rainy night at an abandoned railway station with no memory of how you got there. The last train left hours ago — or did it? Strange sounds echo through the empty halls, and the line between reality and nightmare begins to blur. Rainy Station is a first-person psychological horror adventure set across four haunting locations: the abandoned station, a foggy forest, a derelict hospital, and a decaying bedroom. Each chapter peels back a layer of a dark mystery that grows more unsettling with every step. ESCAPE MODE (new) The station won't let you go. The fishing boat at the pier still runs, but its parts have been stripped. Find them, haul them, fit them, get out. • Carrying a part means no weapon and slower movement — one hauls, one covers • Fitting a part pins you in place and makes noise; the horde hears it • Every part fitted raises the pressure for good: the round escalates, it doesn't flatline • The engine isn't the end — you have to barricade the pier before she sails • Last stand: hold the pier while the engine warms, and keep the barricades up • Pick your downed teammate back up; a death doesn't end the run • 1-4 players, 10-12 minute runs. A bigger crew gets more work, not an easier one. FEATURES • Online co-op: up to 4 players, in Escape or Free mode • Drivable cars you can run zombies down with • Atmospheric first-person horror with a slow-burn narrative • Four distinct chapters, each with its own visual identity and scares • Immersive sound design and dynamic weather effects • Puzzle-driven exploration with environmental storytelling • Original soundtrack composed to heighten dread • Available in English and Turkish This game contains themes of psychological horror, disturbing imagery, and mild violence. Not recommended for players with anxiety or sensitivity to horror content.
