In Horrinth you will suddenly become possessed by a demon while testing a house on paranormal activities. You’ll find yourself in a Labyrinth symbolic for your possessed ‘subconscious’. To stay in actual control you have to keep ‘breathing’. The illusive power of the demon and the player’s anxiousness to survive full possession will collide in battle. Only certain Labyrinth areas can temporarily take you back to reality to quickly prepare your exorcism.
Escaping the demon’s grip on your sub consciousness temporarily is essential to prepare your exorcism. Only Hourglasses scattered in rooms throughout the Labyrinth will provide this ‘reality’ access back to the house for a short time. Hourglass rooms are rigged with complex puzzles and illusions to protect these leaks. Only those with sharp minds will be able to reach and use the Hourglass. To active an Hourglass portal, you simply hold your breath when you stand in front of them.
