Vanishing Point: 3:14

About this game

It is 3:14 PM, October 14, 1994, and detention has not ended. Vanishing Point is a first-person perception puzzle game with one rule that keeps changing what it means: things are exactly as big as they look. Hold a crate up to your eye and it becomes as big as it looks. Look through a coloured viewer and part of the room appears. Photograph a bridge, hold the picture up where it lines up, and walk across. Ten chapters and 47 handmade rooms, each built on a real optical illusion: forced perspective, colour as light, mirrors and cameras, shadows, photographs inside photographs, an impossible hall, and a recording of yourself. No narrator, no combat, no clues but the room. After the story: Detention Hours builds endless rooms from a seed, the daily challenge gives everyone the same five minutes, and the hall builder lets you make a hall and share it as a code. Plays with keyboard and mouse, touch, or a controller. Colour-blind help, three text sizes and a Reduce motion mode are in Settings. Some rooms flicker; Reduce motion turns that off.
