CAPTCHA.exe
A downloadable game
š¤ MICROPHONE REQUIRED š¤
YOU MUST HAVE A WORKING MICROPHONE TO PLAY THIS GAME
The monsters in the dark listen to you. Silence is your armor. Your voice is the key.
You are locked inside a small testing room. Your only job is to solve standard CAPTCHA tests by speaking into your microphone. Tell the machine where the fire hydrants and crosswalks are to prove you are human.
But as you speak, the computer begins to glitch and break. The standard tests change into creepy Backrooms images and scary psychological questions. The game slowly turns into a claustrophobic survival horror.
When the room goes completely dark, a tall entity will appear near you. It listens to your real-world sounds. If you scream, make a loud noise, or breathe heavily, you die.
Your choices, your talking speed, and your silence will change the story. There are 3 UNIQUE ENDINGS.
- Voice-Controlled Gameplay: No typing allowed. You must read security codes and answers out loud into your microphone.
- Real Silence Mechanics: The monsters react to real-world sounds. You must hold your breath when they get close.
- Analog Horror Experience: Authentic retro CRT screen effects, sudden glitches, and immersive 3D audio design.
| [MOUSE] | Look Around & Inspect the Room |

you should select center right and lower right
couldnāt properly pick up other direction.
Only thing that the game able to pick up smoothly is reset and confirm command.
you need to expand the mic setting.
but, i do want to say that the ambient is eerie
edit: i got a decent mic and aināt no way it didnāt work!
Are you sure you're pronouncing the commands correctly and speaking calmly and clearly? I'm Turkish and my accent is completely different, but even so, it understands every command clearly.
The game heard āconfirmā and āresetā command correctly. And iām pretty sure i say the word loud, calmly and clearly as possible. The game able to picked up āI am readyā command correctly too! What else iām supposed to prove?
i only having trouble on choosing the captcha (or pronouncing the boxās location), thatās all.
You're right—the detection tolerance is probably too high. I'll fix that in the next update. Thanks for the feedback ā¤ļø
I don't know if it's just me but having issues with voice commands. First test I couldn't get past because it wasn't registering my commands to confirm and/or saying a position. Hopefully, in the future I can play the game. Has potential and thought it would make a great YouTube video.
Are you sure you plugged in the microphone before starting the game and havenāt unplugged it since? You also need to select the microphone youāre using as the default device in your computerās sound settings.
Great game, i love it!!!

ive been stuck here for like 40 minutes and have gotten nowhere. the stage where i have to select the "unreal/ should not exist" eerie areas, is there something genuinely wrong with me? none of the options are working. ive chosen the 3 obvious ones those being upper left "backrooms", middle "pool rooms" (maybe), and upper right being the backroom staircase thing. desperately need help please
For the first question about liminal spaces, the correct answers are the upper left, middle, and lower center options. ln the second one is center right, lower right, lower center and lower left.
iām stuck on the which rooms are architecturally unreal, which do i pick š great game and iām having fun but ive been stuck for an hour
Hahaha. Yeah, that part is a bit tough, but thatās just part of the game.
