A gripping 2D psychological horror tale of guilt, atmosphere, and eerie storytelling
DISTRAINT: Deluxe Edition brings the cult-hit DISTRAINT: Pocket Pixel Horror to mobile—an unsettling 2D psychological horror adventure built on atmosphere, emotion, and a haunting narrative. Step into the shoes of Price, a young man who sacrifices his humanity for ambition, and uncover a story filled with regret, dread, and dark humor. Perfect for fans searching for immersive story-driven horror games, retro pixel thriller experiences, or short narrative adventure games.
Originally released on PC in 2015, this refined mobile edition delivers a fast-paced, two-hour journey through varied environments, immersive sound design, and simple yet impactful puzzle gameplay. Whether you're a longtime horror fan or new to the genre, DISTRAINT offers subtle, atmospheric scares without relying on cheap jump-scare tactics—ideal for players seeking deep psychological tension reminiscent of classic indie horror storytelling.
FEATURES
- Side-scrolling 2D horror with unique, hand-drawn pixel graphics

Unlike typical modern horror games, DISTRAINT builds fear through mood, narrative weight, and a constantly oppressive atmosphere. Its subtle horror approach makes it suitable for both seasoned players and those exploring psychological horror for the first time. If you enjoy emotional indie games, eerie narrative adventures, or compact horror stories, this one is worth your time.
The Android edition has been enhanced with expanded environmental lighting and added color for a more striking visual experience. To ensure smooth performance, the mobile version runs at 30 FPS—barely noticeable due to the game’s minimal motion—while removing the lantern mechanic from PC to improve playability on touchscreen devices.
