About this game

Nightmare Zapping is a horror channel surfing game, where you watch a mysterious TV that shows you several people in a cursed town. In NZ you will experience a compilation of short stories dealing with different themes, characters, and events around something unknown that threatens the town.

Tune in, watch the stories, piece them together and uncover what happened in these towns. What awaits you in these channels? A little adventure game? A choose-your-own-story? A romantic date? Nothing can prepare you for the horrors you're about to experience.

Two stories on one package!

Part 1: Mysterious disappearances have been happening in a small town called Canela Town. Something perverse has the whole town in its grip...
Part 2: After the tragedy of Canela Town, Laurel Town - a nearby place - prepares for its summer festival, unaware that what happened to Canela Town could happen to them.
