A downloadable game

A pixel-art action adventure where every screen is watching you.

One cable. One mistake. A whole network awakened.

Everything began with one monitor...

Karol was peacefully playing on his computer when Maksiu pulled out the monitor cable. Karol tried to hit him, missed completely and destroyed the monitor instead.

Unfortunately, it was not an ordinary monitor.

Its destruction awakened MONITORNET — a corrupted artificial intelligence connecting thousands of screens, machines and forgotten computer systems.

Now monitors are walking, talking and trying to stop Karol before he reaches the heart of the network.

The monitors have awakened.
Karol has already chosen violence.
