A New Breed of Multiplayer Terror
Project UNSEEK is an asymmetric multiplayer horror game by Indonesian studio Arsanesia. Matches are played in a 2 versus 6 format two players become terrifying Creatures, while six others take the role of Students struggling to survive. This setup creates a tense, unpredictable atmosphere where the hunters and the hunted are constantly adapting.
Inspired by 1980s slasher movies, mysterious SCP-style legends, and sci-fi experiments, the game blends nostalgic horror with fresh mechanics. Its design focuses on quick, intense matches that make it hard to play just once.
A Trip Gone Horribly Wrong
The story follows high school students on a school trip gone awry. Without warning, they are transported to a strange dimension, trapped in an experiment run by unknown researchers. The new world is hostile, horrified, and full of danger.
As Humans, players must hack systems, collect resources, and open a portal to escape. As Creatures, the goal is to track, trap, and eliminate every Human before time runs out. Every choice matters whether to hide, fight, or rush the objectives could determine victory or defeat.
