Exhibit Of Sorrows
About Exhibit Of Sorrows
Released on Itch.io by developer Maxim Tsai with collaborator Theresa Kao, Exhibit of Sorrows is a truly unique horror game. At first, it appears to be a simple exploration game, inviting you to step inside a circus-themed museum. But don't let the cheerful initial mood/atmosphere and soundtrack fool you; it quickly becomes dark and unsettling.
Exhibit of Sorrows: When Art Becomes Agony
Every art piece in this eerie exhibit—including the dolls like Mr. Floaty, Mr. Washy, Ms. Stretch, and Mr. Handy—is a puzzle waiting to be solved. Your task is to interact with them to find the keys needed to progress deeper into the museum. These actions, however, force you to make decisions that are both difficult and morally grey.
The game's story is gradually revealed as you explore. The deeper you go, the more tense the atmosphere becomes, and the soundtrack grows increasingly terrifying. You must be careful, as there is a certain clown you should not provoke. The game offers different endings based on your choices, encouraging you to play again to uncover every secret.
