This is a game set in a confined space with permanent death that keeps you on edge every second. In this dynamic world, you are forced to constantly move, search for keys to locked rooms, and find ways to escape. To survive, the player must use potions with various effects—from damaging potions to buffs—but their supply is limited, and every decision can be fatal. Each room presents new challenges, and permanent death forces you to think through every move carefully. This game will be a true test of your agility, strategy, and ability to adapt to unpredictable situations. Each adventure is unique thanks to procedurally generated chests that hide keys and potions. You never know what awaits behind the next door. Every chest you open could be a lifesaving opportunity or force you to take even greater risks. Keys are an essential part of progression, allowing you to unlock doors to the next rooms. They come in several types, each with its own unique theme. Bloody keys require sacrifice or combat, Stone keys symbolize strength, Ice keys are frozen in traps that must be overcome, and Archkeys are rare, unlocking access to special objects. Potions are your main allies in the fight for survival, but their power can also be your downfall. Each potion has a unique effect, but works both ways, so recklessness can cost you your life. The most important and valuable is the poison potion, which can remove the curse from doors, unlocking the way forward. But be cautious: if you miss or, worse, hit yourself, your journey ends here and now. Using potions requires precision, calculation, and composure, as every action could be decisive. A key feature of the game is its built-in ecosystem for speedrun fans. You can track your completion time for each room and overall progress directly during gameplay. This allows you to analyze your actions, refine your tactics, and compete against yourself. It adds challenges for the fastest and most agile players, making every second crucial in your journey. The game has no storyline, you need to go through six rooms and an island to find a boat and escape. The enemy will keep you constantly on edge, while the speedrun timer relentlessly tracks your run. This game is perfect for activating your brain, hanging out with friends, and competing for the best result. 'After the death of your father, the king, traitors stripped you of your right to inherit and imprisoned you on the Isle of Exile in the form of a maid. Princess, escape, but beware of him...'
