About The Broken Record

Released March 2026

The Broken Record is a short, first-person walking sim, set in a formerly abandoned apartment.

Assume the role of one of the apartment's tenants, a musician returning home in hopes to find where his lost friend and fellow music-lover disappeared to.

Much like his memory, the room has grown dark and is sparsely lit with the memories of the past. A persistent blockade manifests in the form of a boarded window.

Explore the room for a way to pry open the window to shed light on the past.

Uncover the incident that separated these two friends forever and restore your memories of that fateful day.
