In this "found-footage" horror game you have to navigate the rooms and hallways of the mysterious Narrow Woods Hotel.

Known issues / troubleshooting:
If windows defender blocks the game from running, click "more info" and select "run anyway". This happens because the game is from an "unknown publisher".
If you're using Wave Link, and the game crashes after the splash screen (probably caused by the rerouting of the audio) go to your Windows sound settings, set your default output to "Wave Link System" and then assign the game's output to "Wave Link System" aswell. If you can't change the audio back to "system audio", rename the narrowwoodshotel.exe to anything you like, then start the game again.
For problems with other audio rerouting programs, a similar solution might apply.
