What frightens You wake in a dead universe where a curse called Necrophosis rots everything it touches: deserts of bone, towers grown from skeletal limbs and creatures infected with decay, explored to narrated poems while you solve the puzzles that lead you deeper into its macabre story.

Content: body horror, blood.

Necrophosis is a first-person horror puzzle adventure in a surreal, macabre world. Billions of years after the universe met its end, you wake in a realm ruled by death and a curse that rots everything, and explore its grotesque landscapes, solving puzzles as narrated poems tell its story.

About Necrophosis

Necrophosis is a first-person horror adventure by Dragonis Ares and Adonis Brosteanu, published by Dragonis Games and released on Steam in April 2025.

Billions of years after the universe met its demise, you awaken in a realm where death reigns supreme, but even death may die. Necrophosis, the curse that plagues this world, inflicts decay on everything it touches, and its characters, infected by the curse, are the very picture of decay.

The world itself is the horror: deserts of bone, monuments shaped like skeletal bodies, flesh grown into architecture, all in dust-orange light. You explore it, solve puzzles that each reveal another part of the story, and listen to narrations and poetry that unfold slowly.

It suits players who like strange, slow, artful horror in the vein of Scorn, built more on dread and imagery than on chases.

How to play Necrophosis

  1. Buy it on Steam for Windows.
  2. Explore the dead world in first person.
  3. Solve the puzzles you find; each solution reveals more of the story.
  4. Listen to the narrations and poems to piece together what happened.
