The year is 1824, Edith is living in a small village named Hollowmire. She's 14 and spends most of her days playing with marbles and playing cards.

Hollowmire is a small town of around 100 occupants. Most of them are farmers or henchmen.  The town was founded 30 years ago on top of an old village that was destroyed by a violent fire. The causes of this fire are unknown.


It is 2 AM.
Edith wakes up out of her home, in a odd looking circle.
There's no one around. 
She feels...hunted...



PENUMBRA is a top down 2D horror game. You will have to complete the main objective without getting caught by what lurks in the shadows. You may find modifier cards that can help you...or not.

Fullscreen and headphones are recommended.


This game was made in one week during the Scream Jam 2024.

I really like the little collectable card pickups! That mechanic adds a really nice bit of depth to the gameplay that is refreshing to see in a game jam game!
