Static: The Beginning, developed and published by Ransol Studio for PC, is a horror experience that dives into the bone-chilling adventure of Clara, an ordinary young woman whose life takes a complete 180-degree turn after what seems to be a fine evening.
Illustrated in colorful and realistic 3D graphics, Static: The Beginning delivers an immersive horror experience by utilizing walking simulator mechanics and explores psychological suspense and survival themes.

Play as Clara
Static: The Beginning follows the story of a young woman named Clara in a Moroccan riad where a seemingly simple night turns her life into something sinister and terrifying. From here, you take over the role of this ordinary woman and explore the atmospheric setting with intricately designed environments that fully immerse you in the engaging storyline filled with mysteries.
As you navigate this eerie expanse, you are bound to encounter scary monsters and brainwashed cultists whom you must outsmart and outfight. Puzzles and challenges are also laid out all over the Moroccan raid. Solve and overcome them to uncover secret places to help you piece together the entire story of the strange phenomenon that led Clara to this circumstance.
This experience is accompanied by a dynamic sound design that provides a spine-tingling soundtrack and thematic sound effects, allowing you to get lost in the playthrough. In addition, it features high-quality visuals, including unique character designs, which make it distinctive and separate it from other horror titles. However, although it leads to multiple possible endings, its linear storyline aspect limits its variation in replayability.

Static: The Beginning offers a haunting journey through psychological horror, blending atmospheric exploration, eerie sound design, and a gripping first-person narrative. While its linear structure may limit replayability, the immersive setting, emotional storytelling, and chilling encounters keep the experience compelling from start to finish. Clara’s descent into a surreal nightmare is disturbing and captivating, making Static a memorable horror title for fans of suspense-driven, story-rich experiences.
