Necrophosis Just Launched And Even The End Isn’t Safe

Necrophosis isn’t traditional horror. Oh no, it’s more nightmarish than anything else. It’s not about monsters around every corner. It’s about the world itself becoming a monster and you, lucky player, are going to travel through it..

Billions of years after the universe’s collapse, you awaken in a twisted realm where Necrophosis—a cosmic plague of decay—rules everything. Think Lovecraftian death cult vibes cranked up to eleven, but the terror isn’t loud. It’s quiet. It’s rotting (there are some shrieks occasionally).

Expect:

• Grotesque landscapes crafted with unsettling detail
• Ominous visuals that keep your attention no matter what it is (there’s a black hole!)
• A constant sense that even the ground you walk on is dying under your feet

This is horror that doesn’t jump at you. It festers. 

ALSO! Plenty of brainwork (if you know, you know).

Gameplay: Walk. Observe. Survive. Puzzle.

Labeling Necrophosis as a “walking simulator” doesn’t really do it justice.

Yes, it’s atmospheric. Yes, it’s slow. But it’s also loaded with narrative-driven puzzles, cryptic exploration, and poetic storytelling. Every biome you cross isn’t just there to look gross—it’s part of a bigger mystery, stitched together with haunting narration and lore-heavy visual design.

You’re not blasting anything away here. Your weapons are observation, patience, and dread. Every puzzle solved peels back another layer of the world’s decay.

Plus: 16 Steam Achievements are waiting if you’re the kind of person who needs a tangible reward for surviving pure existential terror.

Launch Details and Pricing

• Release Date: April 25, 2025 (just waiting for hapless players to purchase)
• Price: $15.99 (launch discount — 10% off until May 2, $14.39)
• Platforms: PC (Steam)
• Bundle Option: Buy BrokenLore + Necrophosis together for 10% off

The game is single-player only, with full English audio and subtitles, and yes—it supports Steam Cloud for when you need to save your nightmares across devices. It doesn’t look like it’s Steam Deck compatible yet, so no portable terrors at the moment.

First Reactions: What Players Are Saying

Early reviews are sitting at Positive (33+ reviews already), with players praising the:

• Environmental storytelling
• Surreal art design
• Deeply unsettling atmosphere

Some call it a slow burn (fair warning for adrenaline junkies), but fans of games like Scorn, Layers of Fear, or Amnesia are already getting hooked.

If you’re the type who likes to think about mortality, decay, and the end of everything while solving creepy puzzles? This is your game.

Final Thoughts: Death Isn’t Even the Worst Part

Necrophosis isn’t here to scare you with cheap tricks. It’s here to unmake you slowly. It’s the kind of horror that seeps into your brain while you wander through a world that forgot what living even meant. If you’re ready for something atmospheric, macabre, and more existential than your last 3AM sleep paralysis incident, welcome home.
