Eden is a combination of adventure game and horror, shown from the first person's perspective, connected with the controversial film Antichrist Lars von Trier. The Danish director was responsible for the development of the project, and all the work on the title was supervised by Morten Iversen, the author of the screenplay for the Hitman series. Due to the brutality of the presented events, the title is addressed only to mature audiences.

Before embarking on an adventure in Eden, we need to fill in a survey about our biggest fears. On this basis, the game develops an individual plot, in which it uses phobias revealed by us to intensify the mood of horror. The psychedelic climate of the product places it in a row next to The Path, while in terms of interface Eden is closest to the Myst series.
