Dementium: The Ward — About this game
Dementium: The Ward begins with a confused awakening inside Redmoor Hospital. Dark corridors, hostile creatures and fragments of memory turn exploration into a search for what happened. The touch screen controls your view and provides icons for opening doors, examining clues, taking objects and using them. Weapons and a flashlight serve different needs, so switching between illumination and defence becomes part of navigating the halls. Ammunition counters and the heart monitor help you judge danger. A map and notepad become available after you find them, supporting the search through locked routes and collected clues. Slow down at unfamiliar doors and check what the environment allows before moving deeper into the hospital.
