CALLUS (v1.0.1)

CALLUS is a psychological horror walking simulator that invites players to explore the complex and unsettling relationship between a son and his mother. Set within the confines of his mother’s apartment, the game delves into memories of childhood that are anything but comforting. As the protagonist revisits this familiar space, players uncover a story marked by coldness, overprotection, and emotional detachment, challenging traditional notions of love and attachment. The atmosphere is heavy with tension, creating an experience that can linger long after the brief playthrough. Gameplay in CALLUS is grounded in realism and simplicity, focusing entirely on exploration without the presence of AI or combat. The roughly 30-minute journey encourages players to carefully observe their surroundings and piece together the narrative through environmental storytelling. Progression relies on the player’s willingness to confront difficult emotions and interpret subtle clues, making each experience personal and unique. This short but impactful title offers a haunting reflection on the boundaries between care and control, inviting players to consider what it truly means to be bound to another person.
