About Super Dark Deception
Super Dark Deception is a 2D horror maze game with an arcade feel, a pixel art take on the studio's earlier horror game. The web version is a free demo that covers the first level.
You make your way through a maze while a cast of monsters prowls around you. The look is dark and pixelated, with a dripping red-and-black title screen, and the pace is closer to an arcade game than a slow horror crawl.
You can play Super Dark Deception online in a few minutes, which is about how long one run of the demo lasts. Click the window on the title screen and you're straight in.

What Makes Super Dark Deception Scary
Super Dark Deception mixes arcade speed with horror. Mazes are tense when you cannot see around the next corner, and this one fills its halls with monsters and jump scares.
Expect horror themes and jump scares in a pixel style. It's one level, so it's short, and replays are how you get faster.

- Plan a route before you commit to a corridor. Dead ends are the worst place to be with something behind you.
- Watch the whole screen, not only your character, so you spot monsters before they reach you.
- Play with headphones if jump scares do not bother you, and turn the volume down if they do.
