Evaluation

An Outcry launched on January 5, 2022 as a complete narrative horror RPG with a defined scope: two major routes and five endings. The developer, Quinn K., released several patches in the months following launch to fix bugs and make quality-of-life improvements, culminating in a substantial free v2.0 overhaul on June 21, 2022 that added new content, artwork, animations, and gameplay elements. On March 12, 2023, version 3.0 shipped with an expanded ending and additional fixes, followed immediately by a hotfix the same day. These are the most recent communications from the developer. The store description presents the game as a finished, self-contained experience with clearly enumerated features and endings. The only DLC is a soundtrack pack released at launch. No future content has been announced, no roadmap exists, and the developer has not posted any updates since March 12, 2023. The game launched as a complete product and has since received polish updates — all of which have now concluded.

About this game

Harass your neighbours. Debate with birds. Smoke to survive.

On the fourth floor of an apartment complex in Vienna, five people lead their lonely lives.

Behind door #3 lives the Unnamed, a 25-year-old shut-in:
A smoker, interested in bikes, books and music, in the grip of heavy anxiety and poverty.

By complete chance, the Unnamed would lock themself out of their apartment one fateful night, and be placed in your hands.

The night of the 14th of October 2017
was no ordinary night-
A heavy beating of strange wings filled the air with the scent of smoke, and covered the stars in an ink-like rot.


It is your mission to ensure the Unnamed's safety as the shadows close around them. Make certain they survive; choose their path carefully.
