A short horror game about bringing back something that's been lost

THERE IS A COMMON BUG ON WEB WHERE SOME USERS HAD TO REFRESH THE PAGE AFTER THE FIRST LOAD (WHEN YOU HEAR MUSIC). IT IS HIGHLY RECCOMENDED TO DOWNLOAD THE EXECUTABLE IF POSSIBLE FOR A BETTER GAMEPLAY EXPERIENCE.

The ancient civilizations believed that by letting in the light of the moon for only a few minutes on the winter solstice each year, they could bring back the dead - or at least allow their spirits some freedom

I guess that's why you decided to have them buried in those tombs...

Maybe the legends are true, maybe they really can be brought back.   You have to try, right?

Venture into the ancient tombs, find your loved one, and try not to die in WIND UP

*NOTE:  All goings on in the original ancient tombs are perfectly normal and 100% harmless. Whatever happens to you, it is not our fault.

Hands by... God, I guess. (my actual hands lmao)

This game was made in 4 days as part of the 2026 GMTK Game Jam with the theme "Count Down".
