The Whispers (Major Update)
A downloadable game for Windows
Story
This game is based on nightmares I had as a kid.
The kind that don't fully go away when you wake up.
You are a boy. Even though you are scared and shadows feel dangerous, you are waiting for your mother, a mother who broke her promise. At night, small things like brushing your teeth, watching TV, or playing with toys feel strange and frightening.
Every step takes you deeper into a darker, unknown world. Whispers might help you or trick you, and shadows hide answers or fears. The closer you get to the truth, the harder it is to know what is real and if you can escape.
Features
- 15-20 Minute Playtime
- Interactive Dialogue
- A slowly escalating atmosphere full of tension and mystery
- bedtime routine

great short horror game!
I really liked this game! I believe in this small team creating this game. Honestly feel like this could be an even bigger game than yall have planned! Cheers!
WHY DOES EVERY SINGLE HORROR GAME HAVE INSECTS OR DEMONS OR CLOWNS, CAN'T I JUST ENJOY A NICE WALK THROUGH A PARK OR SOMETHING?! Youtube Link -
YES YES YES! i cant wait for a full game I NEED MORE!
This was awesome for a short game, quite suspenseful and the jump scares were mild, the story of the game is where it got me thinking of the situation we were in, please do make more.
Feel free to check out my playthrough below.
I loved this game! Can't wait to see what it turns into!
pretty good :)
Fantastic game!~ Thanks for the spooks!~
Great game, loved playing it. Very short but nice.
Watch my video of this game here
after playing its a good game short mid way it has a song that i would consider heavenly i recommend playing this game also devs if your reading this theres a bug where you can move bunny and the teddy bear using the story book
i hope this is your first game
Loved playing through the new update!
Great little horror demo. The best part about it how interactable everything was. Really fun! Excited to see more. Well done :)
I made a video on your game if you're interested :)Show post...
very good job bruh
My commentary and my riddled with issues game video footage absolutely didn't do this small demo justice, but it reminded me of Among The Sleep from 2014 and it was pleasant to look/play.
A very interesting little game, I really enjoyed it.
pretty freaky! thanks so much EQiDo!
You put this in No-AI but the the promo images definitely look like it
Really great start to this story. I did run into a bug that stops you from progressing. You can see it in my video here at about 10:25. I put chapter markers to make it easier. I did get past it after restarting a few times.
I loved the creepy atmosphere and I'm definitely intrigued by the story. Looking forward to future updates to this title.
Thanks for playing and pointing out the bug. I’ll work on fixing it.
You're welcome. I'm happy to help.
Here is a gameplay (Spanish). Hope you enjoy it!
Hey! Thanks for sharing this game with me, especially after letting me know about the major update! This game has a lot of potential storytelling in it and I hope that you keep working on it!

muuito bom, jogamos na escola, foi bem tudo, gostei pq não tem jumpscare, continue o jogo:)
Thank you for playing my game! I'm glad you like it the most.
Absolutely, If you need any voice actor volunteers for the project(s) lmk, I would love to be involved.
I really had a great time playing the update to this game!
This game is a great use of trying to make nightmares scary again, well done on this game and sharing your fear with others. Really fun and scary!
Sorry you had these nightmares as a kid, wouldn't want a creepy nurse chasing me
Played this before the major update and the video didn't have audio but thankfully you added a lot more to the demo so I was glad to replay it and show it off to people!
Game is great i enjoyed is the full game out already since it is on steam love the design and how the demon turns out i rate it a solid 7/10 thanks for the experience i will definitely play it again when its fully out on steam
You had all the assets and you had to use AI for thumbnail?
ı was gonna say the exact same .
