“Sinner 97 is absolutely more than it appears. It may not be the deepest horror game you'll ever play, or even the scariest, but it's a heck of a lot of fun.”

About This Game

OUR FATHER wishes to see you…
Sinner 97 is a first person, PSX stylised, VHS psychological horror. It is our homage to the PS1 era of gaming.


The Story
Set in 1997, you are responding to an apparent message of distress from a member of a shadowy religious cult lead by “The Father”.

In the past the cult has kept to themselves, but in recent months they have been acting stranger and town locals report ever more disturbing rumours and activities.

Townsfolk have reported missing children, but police have been slow to act. Now for the first time a message has been “leaked” from inside the cult, causing further interest into what is really going on inside the walls of the Father’s house.

You proceed to the cult compound, not knowing what you will find, but determined to unravel what is going on…and to save anyone you can.
