About this game

The Cradle: Episode 01 is a first-person narrative horror game built on the developer's own Narrative Horror Runtime engine and rendered with three.js, so it plays directly in a browser (and on phones) with no install; Windows and Steam Deck builds also exist. Play involves moving through corridors and rooms, finding keys to open locked doors, reading notes, using hiding places, and avoiding a creature that hunts the player, with scripted scares, power cuts and working lifts. The author states the game is free and that most of the code was written with Claude Code. A second, shorter Halloween side game, The Cradle: Trick-or-Treat, is also linked from the same post and is playable in the browser.
