Evaluation
Shift 87 launched on July 23, 2024 as a self-contained first-person observation horror game. The store description describes a complete, finite experience: 66 anomalies across 3 handcrafted levels, with an estimated playtime of 2–3 hours for a full playthrough. The launch post from Pixelsplit framed it as a finished product and invited players to share feedback — there was no mention of post-launch content, updates, or future additions. Of the 10 developer posts on record, only one carries meaningful content (the launch announcement itself), and none indicate plans for expansions, DLC, or ongoing updates. There are no DLC listings of any kind. The game appears to have been designed and shipped as a complete, standalone experience.

About this game
Dear valued shift worker,
Important: Remain calm if you become frustrated, in case you overlook inconsistencies and your shift takes longer. Excessive levels of adrenaline, noradrenaline or cortisol could lead to permanent damage.
Keen investigators can find a total of 66 anomalies throughout 3 levels of handcrafted, highly atmospheric environments.
Runs are randomly generated, featuring small and subtle as well as horrifying and unmissable anomalies to provide a gameplay experience that is uniquely different and exciting each time. Players can expect a playtime of around 2-3 hours for a full playthrough.
Can you find and report all of them to end your shift?
Or will terrible paranoia be your downfall...?
your task today: Check special environments for anomalies and deviations.
- Navigate through each level and memorize it.
- Spot any deviations.
- Use your designated device to report any anomalies.
- Accuracy is paramount. Incorrect reports lead to a reset of the sequence.
