New Boat Horror Game Inspired By Real Life - Island of Dolls In Mexico
Europe, 01 June 2026 - Steelkrill Studio announced Where Dolls Hang, A game inspired by a real-life location in Mexico and puts you in the role of a detective. Players will investigate by marking clues, handling bodies, and surviving on a boat while navigating wetlands, swamps, and forests filled with hanging dolls. Along the way, you'll craft weapons and build your own shelter to stay alive.
The game is inspired by Isla de las Muñecas in Mexico, also known as the Island of dolls. The game blends the survival, crafting, and exploration of The Forest with the psychological tension and atmosphere of Silent Hill, P.T and Outlast.
Unlike traditional survival horror experiences, Where Dolls Hang puts players in the role of a detective. Trapped within an unnatural "Forest of Dolls," players must investigate missing person cases by examining bodies, collecting clues, placing evidence markers, and documenting crime scenes with an in-game camera, all while surviving the dangers lurking within the woods.
Described as a blend of The Forest, Outlast, P.T and Silent Hill, Where Dolls Hang combines survival mechanics, exploration, and crafting with psychological horror and a unique forensic investigation system rarely seen in the genre.
