Developed by the Germany-based indie developer StrixLab, Ad Infinitum is an atmospheric single-player horror game that puts deep into the trenches of World War I, haunted by terrifying monsters. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:center;\">[youtube https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=eprVKIH4Xxs]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">According to StrixLab official website, Ad Infinitum will place you in the middle of a forlorn battlefield where unknown and vicious creatures lurk in the shadows. The player must solve challenging puzzles to clear pathways and avoid deadly traps while sneaking through a maze of trenches, hiding from the horrors manifested by the bloody war.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_10461\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10461\" style=\"width: 628px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-10461 size-full\" title=\"Middle of a forlorn battlefield screenshot from Ad Infinitum game.\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cyberpowergaming.com\/w\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/ad-infinitum-screenshot.jpg\" alt=\"Ad Infinitum Screenshot\" width=\"628\" height=\"355\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-10461\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo Source: StrixLab.com<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify;\">Its surrealistic game world is based on facts and history that happened during the World War I mixed with some fictional elements, producing an intense story told through its environment.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">The trailer gave us a brief glimpse of the supernatural monstrosities that lie in the dark and wet trenches. Ad Infinitum is, as of this writing, still in its early development stage. The developer confirmed that Ad Infinitum will focus on a deeper psychological and surreal horror, and will not rely on jump scares.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_10460\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10460\" style=\"width: 628px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-10460 size-full\" title=\"The game focuses on a deeper psychological and surreal horror.\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cyberpowergaming.com\/w\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/ad-infinitum-gameplay.jpg\" alt=\"Ad Infinitum Gameplay\" width=\"628\" height=\"355\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-10460\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo Source: StrixLab.com<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify;\">In the video, the character seems to only evade and hide from the monsters, but the game will have weapons.
