Game information[]
Plot[]
When eight friends become trapped on a remote mountain getaway gone wrong, things quickly turn sinister and they start to suspect they are not alone. Every choice the player makes while playing as each of the eight friends – even the seemingly trivial ones – will carve out a unique story. The player's actions alone determine who survives until dawn.
Gameplay[]
Until Dawn is designed to be played multiple times, as players will miss out on quite a bit of content with a single playthrough. The game mechanics utilize a new in-game system called the "Butterfly Effect" in which any choice of action by the player may cause unforeseen consequences later on. Throughout the game, players will make difficult decisions during ethical or moral dilemmas, such as sacrificing one character to save another. The Butterfly Effect system blurs the line between right and wrong decisions and it is possible for players to keep all eight characters alive as well as having all eight of them die, allowing for many different paths and scenarios. There are only three true endings, but have different variations depending on the combination of characters alive at the end of the game.
Until Dawn has a strict auto-save system to prevent players from reloading a previous save file to an earlier point in the game if they regret an in-game decision they have made. The only way to change the player's choice is to restart the game from the beginning or continue to the end and start a new game. The gameplay is focused on exploration, quick-time events and discovering clues as well as making decisions.
