About

SCP: CONTROL ERROR is a short, first-person psychological horror game set in 1985 You are Barry Gittings - a man who volunteered for a classified experiment inside the Vortex Complex, a remote underground facility established during the Cold War. You don’t know what’s behind the next door. You don’t know who’s watching. You only know the doors opened, the voice welcomed you, and the test began. Explore sealed research chambers. Solve strange cognitive trials. Read internal reports and documents left behind by those who came before - or maybe didn’t leave at all. No jump scares. No gunfights. Just you, the test, and something you can’t quite see. Key Features A short, tightly focused first-person horror experience (30–45 minutes) Explore a Cold War-era research facility with a dark secret Solve immersive environmental puzzles and cognitive trials You’re not told what’s happening - only shown what was recorded. The Game was created by Chieftain Artworks - a mysterious solo developer who remains in hiding. Only one thing we know - he is a part of the SCP community.
