The demo is live on itch.io

You can play it now. The demo of Museum Aksara Jiwa — our FNAF-inspired survival horror set in an Indonesian museum — is live on itch.io, free. One security booth, seven cameras, and a building full of artifacts that don't stay where you left them.

Meet Agus

You play Agus, 32, drowning in a few hundred million rupiah of debt after losing his janitor job. A friend mentions a night guard opening at a newly built museum. The daily wage is suspiciously high. Agus doesn't ask why. You'll find out for him.

What you're up against

• The shift is the clock. Survive from 12:00 AM to 6:00 AM. Sunrise is the only win condition.
• Everything runs on a budget. Electricity powers your cameras and lights; your sanity powers you. Burn incense — bakar dupa — to hold your mind together, and watch both meters drain.
• The flashlight is a weapon. It's the one thing the entities in the dark respect. It also eats your power.
• The exhibits move. Wayang puppets, a Rangda mask, artifacts that were definitely in a different room an hour ago. Track them on CCTV — seven cameras, one pair of eyes.

Fair warning

The game has blood, sudden loud noises, flashing lights, jumpscares, and an atmosphere that does not let up. That's not a side effect — that's the product.

Play it, then yell at us

This demo exists so we can find out what's scary and what's just annoying while the game is still soft enough to reshape. Tell us what got you, what bored you, and where you alt-F4'd — at hello@zelkalabs.id or in the itch.io comments. Every report shapes the full game.
