What is Unknown Tapes?

A single-player, first-person horror walking simulator set in a modern town overrun by dinosaurs. You explore indoor and outdoor areas mostly at night, hiding and keeping noise down through a roughly two-to-three-hour story. Larger dinosaurs can destroy buildings, so going indoors doesn't guarantee safety.

For you if...

+you prefer short horror stories to lengthy campaigns
+you enjoy cautious exploration while hiding from predators

Not for you if...

−you want fighting dinosaurs to be the main activity

What players say

80% of 479 reviews are positive

Players praise the dinosaur designs and the atmosphere created by the VHS-style presentation. Some find the walking and crouching repetitive and the dinosaur encounters too scripted or predictable.
