Isolation 84 (demo)

ISOLATION 84

1984. An alternate Soviet Union. A city that doesn't appear on any ordinary map.

You are Viktor Gorelov, an officer of OROCH, sent to the isolated city of Zagorsk-9 to investigate a series of mysterious disappearances.

Your orders are simple: locate the missing, uncover what happened, and report your findings.

Who will you trust when everyone has something to hide?

THE STORY

ISOLATION 84 is a story-driven psychological horror visual novel set in an alternate Soviet Union, where surveillance, secrecy, and unquestioning obedience have become part of everyday life.

Step into a closed city built on order and fear. Investigate unexplained disappearances, examine classified documents, follow scattered clues, and gradually piece together a truth that someone has gone to great lengths to conceal.

Every conversation could offer a lead. Every stranger might be connected to the case. Every decision could bring you closer to answers you were never supposed to find.

But be careful.

Not everyone who offers to help is telling the truth.
