Reviews

“...an incredible Indie Horror game that plays on the monotony of office work and what it means to be stuck in one place.”
VICE

“It’s hard to fully communicate it in writing, but the visual and audio aesthetic of Dead Letter Dept allows it to drive above the legal limit.”
Destructoid

“See for yourself how creepy mail-sorting can be”
GameSpot

About This Game

AFTER MOVING TO THE BIG CITY

you got yourself an apartment, and secured a temp data entry job- just to keep you afloat till something better comes along. YOUR OFFICIAL TITLE IS A DATA CONVERSION OPERATOR, but you're really more like a warm body who types up all the junk computers still can't read.

D A Y - T O - D A Y

you go to work & process the images displayed on your terminal, and type up whatever random text is in front of you. Whatever can be made out, that is.

Sometimes the mail you receive is a little strange- letters and lost mail, some mangled and twisted, that have travelled from place to place with nowhere else to go.

Sometimes, it feels like it's talking to you directly through the screen...

  • USE YOUR KEYBOARD to type in various prompts, and attempt to decipher damaged images

  • MULTIPLE ENDINGS & buried secrets to uncover

  • NO TWO PLAYTHROUGHS are exactly the same (Estimated playtime: 120min per run)

  • A MASSIVE AMOUNT OF MAIL to voyeur through, and catch glimpses into other lives

  • ATMOSPHERIC HORROR MOOD with rich sound designed to crawl under your skin

Mouse & Keyboard are REQUIRED

Key re-binding is available, but a keyboard with Function Keys and Control Keys (Insert, Page Up/Page Down) is strongly recommended.

Featured in the HauntedPS1's Spectral Mall Demo Disc collection
