The Deadseat is a narrative-driven horror game with strategy and timing elements, centered around a cursed theater seat that brings death to anyone who stays in it too long. Players must survive a series of ghostly encounters, puzzles, and moral choices while seated and unable to stand. The game uses spatial awareness and audio cues to create tension in a confined environment.
Unlike traditional horror games where movement is key to survival, The Deadseat challenges players by removing that freedom. Your character is bound to a single seat in an abandoned theater. Lights flicker. Shadows move. Sounds echo unnaturally. Your only tools are your eyes, ears, and your ability to interact with objects within arm’s reach. Everything you need is within your space—but so are the threats.
As you progress, you uncover the theater’s story through playbills, broken props, and ghostly messages. Each night brings new rules, new phantoms, and new tasks. Surviving means understanding how long you can remain still, what you must touch, and what you should never acknowledge.
The Deadseat is not about jump scares—it’s about slow-building dread and escalating paranoia. Over time, players question what’s real. Some ghosts talk. Some mimic. Some cry for help. Not all interactions are hostile, but few are trustworthy. The game asks players to choose: endure and uncover the truth or risk everything to escape.
The Deadseat offers a unique horror experience rooted in psychological discomfort, limited agency, and thematic storytelling. You don’t get to run—but you still might survive. Or not.
