Anomaly: Haunted Aisle

You find yourself on a supermarket aisle that never ends. Sometimes something is out of place — odd, or just plain wrong. At other times, all is well. By carefully observing your surroundings, you must decide whether to turn back or press on. Each correct choice pushes you deeper into the store — and deeper into a story of guilt, grief, and a man searching for his lost wife and son. THE RULES ARE SIMPLE If you spot an anomaly, turn back. If nothing seems wrong, continue forward. Make enough correct decisions to reach the checkouts. Make a mistake — and you’ll find yourself back at the beginning. Each successful choice carries you further into the store, and further away from the familiar. A PLACE THAT CHANGES AS YOU DO What begins as a normal daytime supermarket slowly transforms across repeated loops: - A lively store becomes empty - Day turns to night - Shelves become bare, signs fade, lights go out - Familiar figures disappear… or leave something behind With each return, new anomalies emerge — revealing fragments of memory, guilt, and loss woven into the environment itself. This is not a place haunted by mere ghosts. It is a place shaped by what refuses to be forgotten. A STORY TOLD THROUGH OBSERVATION There are no formal objectives on screen. No dialogue trees. The story unfolds through: - Environmental details - Repeating figures - Subtle changes in space and time - What appears — and what no longer does - TV and radio broadcasts heard throughout the store As you progress, you may begin to glimpse those you’re searching for. And eventually, understand why you’re here.
