DESCEND

DESCEND is a story-driven psychological Minecraft horror map following John, an ordinary office worker whose recurring nightmares begin to blur with reality.

As the line between dreams and waking life fades, you'll explore unsettling environments, uncover fragments of John's story, and confront a mysterious presence that refuses to let him look away.

❤️ A Small Request from the Map Creator

If you're able to, I'd really appreciate it if you recorded your playthrough!

I genuinely LOVE watching people's reactions and seeing how they interpret the story.

• OptiFine is absolutely required, as the map uses custom models that will not load correctly without it.

• Do NOT use shaders.
