Submachine 1: The Basement

Submachine 1: The Basement was recovered from an undocumented year and has been catalogued under unsupervised exploration. Attribution on the original paperwork reads “Mateusz Skutnik.” The specimen was preserved by the Internet Archive and is emulated here in its original form — no installation, no account, no explanation required.

Assessment: suitable for extended lunch breaks. Known side effects include one more attempt. Circulation records show steady public interest in this file.

Original label: Submachine is the most prolific work of major adventure game designer Mateusz Skutnik, spanning ten entries and a major final entry that was in development for over six years; and with puzzling and atmosphere on the level of this, it's easy to see why.

Curator’s note: staff replayed this one “for cataloguing purposes” three times.
