Lurch Lurches Your Way August 24

Video game maker Bartic Studios has released the trailer for Lurch, their multiplayer co-op horror game coming later this month. That’s Lurch, not Lunch — there are no sandwiches in the game.

The premise is that you and the other players are stuck inside a haunted house and have to find a way out. You must work as a team and solve puzzles while avoiding the murderous demons that stalk the shadows. The longer you survive, the stronger the monsters get, so be quick about it! In many ways it’s like a series of escape rooms, which is fitting, because the whole escape room concept was inspired by video games in the first place.

A 4-person co-op horror game where teamwork is the key as players face malevolent demons in a mysterious mansion. An immersive experience with unpredictable AI that continuously changes and adapts to the players’ behavior. Can you conquer your fears and escape?

• Multiplayer Horror: Team up with your friends.
• Adaptive AI: Demons change their strategy based on your actions.
• Haunting Atmosphere: Terrifying visuals and sound effects.
• Challenging Puzzles: Test your intelligence and teamwork.

Lurch launches on Steam August 24.
