What is THRESHOLD?

THRESHOLD is a psychological horror adventure about working at a decaying mountain railway station. You blow a whistle to keep an endless train on schedule, deliver reports, clean a water filter, and collect wood; exertion drains your breath, replenished by air canisters earned through work. The partly linear story branches according to your choices and has multiple endings.

  • +you enjoy surreal horror and exploring unsettling places
  • +you like piecing together stories from scattered clues

Not for you if...

  • −you want action rather than slow, repetitive work
  • −you prefer explicit answers to ambiguous storytelling
