PLAYISM Announces Fall Indie Lineup Offering Unique Experiences Ranging from Audio Only Gameplay to Time Freezing Battles and a PAX Favorite

MotionRec, Cling to Blindness, and Million Depth to Release Starting October 27

TOKYO – Oct. 20, 2025 – PLAYISM, the Japanese indie publishing company known for bringing games from independent developers to players around the world, announced a lineup of three strikingly different indie games that test human senses to its limits, all launching this fall – MotionRec (Oct. 27), Cling to Blindness (Nov. 4) and Million Depth (Nov. 12) on PC via Steam.

MotionRec - Oct. 27

Developed by HANDSUM, MotionRec blends rhythm, action and puzzling where players must find creative ways to record and playback movements to solve puzzles. Set in a post-apocalyptic world, MotionRec follows the journey of a robot named Rec, as it navigates a devastated world ruled by machines. Players record the trajectory of their movements and play them back to interact with the unique and different levels and terrain. The game will be available Oct. 27, 2025 on PC via Steam for $9.99 USD. Watch the trailer here.

Cling to Blindness - Nov.4

Cling to Blindness is an audio horror game from independent developer Lizardry, where players can only rely on audio cues to survive. The only clues of danger come from the sounds of the surrounding environment and looming footsteps. Players must blindly navigate the village and complete a mysterious ritual. The game is welcoming of fans outside the horror genre, as there are no jump scares and designed to focus on audio perception. Cling to Blindness will be available for PC via Steam on Nov. 4, 2025. Watch the Japanese trailer here [game will be available in English at launch].

Million Depth - Nov. 12

Rounding out this trio of fall indie offerings is Million Depth, an action strategy game that bends time and reality. Players guide the heroine Moma as she descends deep underground, through multiple timelines to rescue her friend. Armed with a “biotope jammer,” Moma can stop time to freeze dangerous enemies, giving her time to defeat them. Players will also need to use crafting blocks to craft and repair equipment. Million Depth is developed by Cyber Space Biotope and will launch on PC via Steam on Nov. 12, 2025. Watch the trailer here.
