Liminal spaces that just haunt you – POOLS is now available on GOG

As a seasoned gamer with a penchant for the macabre and the unknown, I must say that POOLS has managed to capture my imagination like few games before it. The game’s eerie atmosphere, reminiscent of wandering through an abandoned art gallery at midnight, is a chilling delight.

In a chilling twist, “POOLS” is a terror-inducing video game that delves into your deepest phobias. As you wander disoriented through these eerie, threshold-like locations, your destination remains shrouded in mystery. And now, you can experience this frightening journey on GOG as well!

What is POOLS?

In the previously mentioned context, POOLS is not only a psychological horror game but also a form of exploration-based experience akin to walking simulators. It offers very few actual obstacles. There are no chasing monsters nor complex puzzles to tackle. Instead, it primarily challenges your ability to navigate and test your mental fortitude.

“One could say POOLS is like an art gallery, where you look around and listen to the sounds.”

It seems as if something hidden is waiting to pounce on you, yet the suspense remains unresolved, making the already unsettling encounter even scarier.

No matter what happens, like falling from the path or drowning in deep water, the game always brings you back to a secure location by going backwards in time.

POOLS plays on fears of getting lost, the dark, and tight spaces.”

The game is currently discounted by 20% on GOG, which means it costs just $7.79 USD. Hurry, as this offer concludes on December 5th. If you haven’t done so yet, I highly recommend giving the game a try!
