Westwood Shadows is at its core a first-person, puzzle-solving game, with survival and psychological horror. Solve increasingly difficult puzzles, survive deadly shadow-beings and follow Peter as he confronts his past.
The story of Westwood Shadows is told through a combination of clues, animated cutscenes, and details in the surrounding environment, including immersive 3D sound and RGB lighting setup - based on game events and mechanics - for the owners of Chroma RGB products by Razer. RedSoup wants to deliver a stream-of-consciousness experience of madness, conspiracy, and grief with original music and performances.

RedSoup Studio was founded when a passion project from previously amateur developers grew into a proof-of-concept alpha in 2019. After positive reception, the team grew. Now based in Cyprus, the codebase has been built from the ground up in 2020 and the story expanded for a feature-length game. By September 2021, the team felt ready and released Westwood Shadows: Prologue with the first part of the story of Westwood Shadows.
