## About This Game
The next chapter in the haunting Dread X Collection series. Co-produced by the
legendary David Szymanski (DUSK, The Music Machine, Squirrel Stapler), Dread X
Collection: The Hunt showcases 7 all-new short horror shooters from a
handpicked selection of creative and unique indie developers.

Continuing the Dread X Collection story, you play as series newcomer Artemis.
Driven by a cryptic message recorded by someone from her past, Artemis makes
her way to the ARK 2 research base. Explore the abandoned base and uncover the
mystery of what happened. If you’re tough enough, you just might save the
world.

The Hunt was conceived and developed as a collaborative effort between Dread
XP and David Szymanski. The devs were selected to represent a mix of the wide
wild world of indie shooters. The timeframe they were given was doubled (from
10 to 20 days) so as to give them more time to develop and hone their ideas.
It’s still the short and creative anthology horror you know and love, but with
a little more shine.

Features:

* 7 new short horror shooters from talented and creative indie devs
* A robust arctic base to explore
* All shooters (be it a gun, a camera, or both!)
* A new mystery to uncover as part of the Dread X Collection universe
* 8-12 hours of playtime

rest.

with the relic to the ruins of the old forest, the monk takes up his old
crossbow for one last hunt.

Rose of Meat (By Mr. Pink): One day while out fishing, your boat crashes into

revolver and a talking leg of meat, venture forth and embrace the madness.

Seraphixial (By Vidas Games, Aaron Wise, and Abbey Smith): After a father

The House of Unrest (By Dan McGrath): After an old priest performs a profane
ritual of everlasting life, he unwittingly invites the plague demon Asakku
