what is [m] an idle nightmare?

Investigate cult-related disappearances in this mobile-compatible idle horror game with no save feature.

This psychological horror idle game puts you on a mysterious case involving cult disappearances. It was made for several horror-themed jams and does not save progress, emphasizing its eerie narrative.

It sits in the Clicker / Idle / Narrative / Puzzle corner of the genre. Like most idle games it runs on a simple loop — earn, reinvest, automate — but the depth is in how long that loop keeps unfolding. Expect to check in, make a few decisions, and watch the numbers climb whether you're at the keyboard or not.
