Layers of Fear is a first-person psychedelic horror game with a heavy focus on story and exploration. Players take control of a painter whose sole purpose is to finish his Magnum Opus.

Along the way players will find bits and pieces of information that will allow the player to understand the dark and sad past of the painter.
Key Features:
