HUSH

Headphones strongly recommended. This game is played with your ears.

You cannot see. Neither can they. But they can hear you.

HUSH drops you into a pitch black maze. No light, no map, no weapon. The only way to see is to make a sound: send out an echo and watch a wave of light roll across the walls, then fade back into the dark.

The problem is that the Listeners are blind too, and they hunt by sound. Every echo you send shows you the maze and tells them exactly where you are.

EVERY NOISE IS A DECISION

- Tap for a small echo, or hold for a big one that shows more and carries further

- Your footsteps make noise. Sneak to stay silent, but you move slowly

- Throw a stone to make a noise somewhere else and pull them away from your path

- Collect the crystals to open the exit. Taking the last one makes the exit scream, and everything in the dark hears it

LEARN TO LISTEN

Wanderers hum. Hunters click, faster when they are chasing. Sentinels pulse slowly and guard a crystal. With headphones on you will know what is near you before you ever see it.

CHAPTERS, EACH WITH A NEW RULE

The Hollow - red Listeners, and the basics

Moss - green Listeners sprint when they hear you

Frost - the floor is ice, and you slide

The Hive - yellow Listeners hear footsteps from twice as far

The Void - echoes fade almost instantly

Levels grow and the dark gets busier. There is a new daily challenge every day, and four optional challenges on every level: no deaths, few echoes, no stones, and a target time. Escape quietly enough and the game calls you a Ghost.
