Highway 11
Inspired by liminal horror, Highway 11 is a psychological horror anomaly detection game, an evolution of hidden-object titles. You awaken at an intersection. All roads lead back to the start. Observe your surroundings carefully to escape the endless loop and uncover the mystery of why you’re here…
A lonely highway. An endless loop. Something is wrong...
In Highway 11, you must carefully observe your environment.
Spot anomalies — or miss them, and remain trapped.
Successfully identify when there is an anomaly or not to break out of the endlessly looping roads.
...But can you piece together how you got here?
Playtime
1-3 hours to break out of the loop
Features
A liminal horror experience set on an endlessly looping highway
The car drives itself. Your only task is to look around, observe, and decide if something has changed.
Decide correctly 11 times in a row, then exit the road when nothing has changed to break the loop.
Speed up or slow down time to study your surroundings or skip stretches of the road.
Instantly return to the intersection if you think you’ve spotted an anomaly.
Note: some anomalies use audio, so keep this in mind when deciding your volume. (You can toggle anomaly and normal sfx volume separately).

How scary is the game?
No jump scares (no loud noises and things appearing out of nowhere)
You may be surprised by seeing something you overlooked, but was always there...
No excessive gore or violence
In my opinion, the game is more "creepy" and "unsettling" than scary. Some may find it's not scary at all. It's subjective, so please let others know in your reviews (but be mindful of spoilers please).
