The Utility Room

`I don’t really think The Utility Room is a horror game. Or at least it foregoes most of the trappings of the genre. But it does operate on what I’d call lizard brain fear, a sense of nope so instinctual there’s no real need to introduce it.’ - Jacob Geller (Video Essay - 3 Specific Kinds of Terror)

The Utility Room is not a traditional VR game. There’s no shooting, no flashing lights, no gumball-machine gameplay. It is a place no one has ever seen or visited – and a place where you do not belong.

It’s best described as a journey, one that carries you across a barren, rocky, and dangerous place. The environments and the beings within it are megalithic. You will feel very small, dwarfed by the scale of the world as you travel across it.

Most entities here will pay you little attention. But this world is far larger than you are. It is dangerous, and nothing will account for your safety.

Those with megalophobia be warned that this game will make you feel very uncomfortable.
