The hook
A simple loop you understand in a minute. Stamp a passport. Open a door. Then the rules start to bend, and you want to see how far.

Pass. Quarantine. Kill.
A nuclear meltdown has unleashed a viral mutagen, and you and your friends are running the Soviet checkpoint in the way. Inspect papers, spot the lies, and judge twisted bodies while radiation and paranoia close in. Every mistake costs something.

What we're about
A simple loop you understand in a minute. Stamp a passport. Open a door. Then the rules start to bend, and you want to see how far.
Horror that builds instead of jumps. Every run is a little stranger, every face a little wronger, and every choice stays with you.
One more run. One more shift. We build games for the moment you check the clock and it's 3 a.m. Better with friends, worse for your sleep.
You came for one round. The spiral had other plans.
The studio
Spiral Trap Studio is Jason and Liza, a two-person indie studio working out of Tbilisi. Jason came from Boston to make games. Liza is a Georgian 3D artist who builds the faces you'll be inspecting a little too closely.
We make the kind of games we can't put down ourselves: dark, a bit funny, and built around one more try. We're small on purpose, so every character, scream and stamp gets made by hand.
