The chain is stubborn. The fog is restless. The air smells like tar.

In the dream you wander through the pines, and come upon a body.
Innocent and young, murdered in cold blood. By your hand or another?
Makes no difference now.

Foghorns Drown is a short psychological thriller, inspired by Silent
Hill, Twin Peaks, and Mouthwashing. You play as a ferryman, bringing
passengers across a foggy lake to a town drenched in mystery and folklore.
The old ferryman has disappeared, and a murder has been committed...

How to tell real from dream when the dead speak again?
- ~40 minute playtime
- WASD to move
- Mouse to look and interact
- TAB for inventory

My full game playthrough. Really good game.
Loved this game so very much! Make sure to check it out yourself!
Great little project, fantastic atmosphere. Will be buying the full version on Steam very soon. :D
EDIT: Okay, so the full game.... I liked it, but I'm gonna be honest with y'all, the demo on this page is over half the full game. This really needed to be longer. The thing is, you didn't really have to change much to make this a better length - you didn't really need more assets, just a few more day/night cycles to build up the tension and a few interesting conversations with the existing characters, maybe some tense distant sounds. As it is, it's kind of over before it gets going. I paid about $10 on Steam for it, but it's really worth like $5 at most in its current state, despite how much I enjoyed it. It's just SO short. :/
Full Game....
Such a good demo, doggo (teary face)
I absolutely loved this demo, and the way it ended really got me! I seriously cannot wait to check out the full release!
This Game Was Dope, cant wait for full drop
Pretty good, I wish you luck. Some notes: 1) There was no indication that TAB should be used for inventory, or that inventory even exists, so I was stuck for a while at the coffee making part. 2) I was happy to see "invert mouse" option, but then it turned out to invert X axis which to me seems quite bizzare. 3) Jeremiah was invisible in the scene after picking up the letter. I told that guy that I don't have the letter, in case that has something to do with it.
I can not wait for the full release!
this game was really fun and interesting cant wait for the full game definitely gonna buy it

Foghorns Drown nailed the creepy atmosphere and world building expertly! I was despertely waiting for the tension to reach it's height, but it looks like we will have to wait for the full release. Great job Laaya!
Great game! Can't wait for the full release
This looks like an intriguing game, very atmospheric. I hope you've received some donations from it.
I love the game and i cant wait for the full game to be released
haven't tried the demo, but just want to say that "Foghorns Drown" is a badass title
This game was a lot of fun and I cannot wait for the full game to come out. I have this on my wish list.
Really nice game!
This is peak. I need to play the full game. It's pretty good.
demo was straight peak but ima need the whole load
Amazing game I loved the eerie atmosphere, the cinematic shots, the mystery, the lore, and the spooks. P.S. Thank you for adding a dog I love him and will die for him same for the chicken. ❤️
Game cool, but just make russian localization pls!
Fantastic demo! Keep up the great work and I can't wait for the full release :)
One of the games of the year! the intrigue surrounding the village and the eerrie atmosphere gets me keen for the full game. i wasn't a big fan of the ending, not at all, but hey maybe thats just me? Can't wait for full game. See my playthrough here:
This demo surprised me I have to say, the eerie atmosphere and the mystery surrounding this place has got me excited for the full game. The end shocked me as well but I wont say much more than that because I don't want to spoil it for other players, highly recommend this demo!
What a beautiful game! Really well made with such nice visuals to look at. Lots of details put into this + an unique great story.
I know it's only the demo but I'm already in love with it; Wishing you all the best releasing the full game ❤️
emotion dAAAmage
I JUST finished this demo and I agree, I literally gasped at the ending :(
Made a video
Just finished the demo and I have to say, this is one of the most unique indie games. There were so many moments that left me feeling like something was deeply wrong, but I could never quite put my finger on it and I mean that in the best way possible.
The atmosphere, sound design, pacing and overall mystery - 11/10.
I love that you trust the player and don't feel the need to explain everything. It made the whole experience feel so much more disturbing and memorable.
Seriously, incredible work. I can't stop thinking about this world and I genuinely can't wait to see where the full release goes. You've got something really special here. Looking forward to day one. ❤️
Thank you :)
