PLAY IT ON NEWGROUNDS!

Version 1.03.


You made WHAT NOW?!

NARTHEX is the sequel to the 2023 video game SANCTUARY. The player has one night to save everyone inside of a church threatened by a sinkhole. But this time, the demons are hunting you!

Do I need to be a super perfect Christian or something?

Nope. The player only needs their wits and be somewhat observant to make progress.

Why is this free?

I honestly don't feel comfortable charging for something that the world desperately needs -- the precious soul saving Gospel. Maybe once I get around to remaking or remastering these games...

What is NARTHEX inspired by?

Point-and-click adventures from the early 90’s.
Undertale / Deltarune (PC)
Deus Ex: Human Revolution (PC)
I'm on Observation Duty (PC)
Pizza Tower (PC)
The Authorized King James Bible

What will I need to run this?

A potato.

What is the average playtime?

About 1 hour to get the normal ending.
About 1.5 hours to get the good ending.
About 2 to 3 hours to get all the achievements.

Is it really scary?

It's about on par with games like Five Nights At Freddy's.

Is Five Nights At Freddy's really scary?

It's about on par with games like NARTHEX. I honestly couldn't tell you why I bothered making this section.

Did I just see a rubber duck?

Yes! They have a 1% chance to appear randomly.

Is there a walkthrough?

BAHAHAHAHA okay here.

I don't see any Sinjas in the final trailer!

SHHHHHHH. DON'T TURN AROUND. JUST CONTINUE TO LOOK AT THE SCREEN AND PLAY THE GAME.

I have thoughts!
