Playing as Erica Mason, a young woman haunted by the brutal murder of her father finds herself entwined in the inner workings of the mental institution her mother was sent to. They must make split-second decisions that could alter the course of the story—and Erica’s fate—forever. Does Dave actually consider this a video game? And will Nick ever save the annoying girl?
