Sleepless – Indie Horror Game About a Sleep Paralysis Nightmare

Sleepless is a short 4 minute horror game where you wake up in the night and realize that something isn’t right. You can’t get up from bed no matter how hard you try. It feels like you’re in a dream but still awake. If you see anything lurking around your room, close your eyes!

As the night goes on, the shadows and other weird things you see keep getting closer. The clock starts off at midnight, and every time you close your eyes time goes back quickly. It seems like an instant later the clock has already gone by an hour! Eventually, the worst of it comes out and gets right in your face.

Although short, Sleepless has a great horror concept that might just make you start looking around your own bedroom tonight. The creator was inspired by the terrifying tales from around the world that described sleep paralysis before the phenomenon was even diagnosed. It only takes 4 minutes to play, so you should definitely check it out.
