Sanatorium: A Mental Asylum Simulator (v0.99)

Set in the roaring twenties, *Sanatorium: A Mental Asylum Simulator* immerses players in the role of a weary journalist turned doctor at the mysterious Castle Woods Sanatorium. As the world outside races toward modernity, you find yourself drawn into a dark and unsettling environment where medical science and psychiatric care are still bound by outdated, often harsh practices. The game weaves a compelling narrative of secrets and personal discovery, inviting you to unravel the mysteries hidden behind the institution’s eerie facade while confronting your own complicated past. Gameplay unfolds through a card-driven system that challenges you to diagnose and treat patients using tools and knowledge reflective of 1923 psychiatry. Each week brings new patient files, presenting puzzles that require careful analysis and strategic decision-making. You can choose to adhere to strict, traditional methods or experiment with more humane, but risky, treatments—each path carrying significant consequences. The campaign spans four chapters filled with branching storylines and multiple endings, shaped by your choices and moral compass. Along the way, you’ll encounter a diverse cast of characters, gather clues, and navigate the fine line between compassion and survival in a place where trust is scarce and every action matters.
