Bar Harbor Blackout is a mind-bending journey into a world where time distorts, reality flickers, and nothing is ever what it seems. You play as Aiden, a Bostonian planning a peaceful weekend getaway in Maine with your girlfriend, Laura. But when you arrive at a party to meet her, she’s vanished without a trace—swallowed by the island itself. Worse, there’s no escape. Every road loops back to the island as if the land itself is conspiring to keep you trapped in its grip.

​

As you search for Laura, the island takes on a life of its own, pulsing with unsettling energy. Full of eccentric characters, bizarre weather, and shifting timelines, the island's twisted history begins to surface the longer you stay and the deeper you explore. Ghosts, zombies, historic characters and events lurk in the shadows and mix with reality, while time fractures, leaving you disoriented and unsure of where—or when—you are. Every decision you make warps reality, pulling you further into a nightmarish web of puzzles and dark mysteries far darker than they first appear.

​

Will you save Laura before the island consumes her? Can you uncover the island’s cursed past and stop an ancient catastrophe from unraveling time itself? Or will you, like many before you, be lost forever in this eerie place?

 

Every decision you make shapes both the fate of Bar Harbor and the world outside of the game, with every play through supporting things such as real-world environmental causes and disaster relief.

 

The clock is ticking, and the island’s secrets are waiting—are you ready to face the darkness?
