Plot

The game stars Holly Earl as Erica Mason, a young woman grappling with nightmares from her childhood and trying to unravel the truth of her family's occult past. The narrative begins with Erica reliving her father's murder and attempting to identify his killer from these visions. When she receives a severed hand in the mail from a mysterious sender, Erica makes contact with the police and returns temporarily to Delphi House, an asylum with which her parents worked when they were alive. There, she meets people from her father's past, as well as several young women staying at Delphi House, and begins to unravel the mystery behind Delphi House, her father's killing, and a mysterious symbol which appears throughout the game.

Erica received mostly positive reviews, though Metacritic attributes it an aggregated score of 69/100 from 40 critic reviews.[3][4][5] Erica's musical score, composed by Austin Wintory, was nominated for "original composition" awards at the 23rd Annual D.I.C.E. Awards and the 2019 International Film Music Critics Association Awards.
