Pools launches on iOS today to haunt you with a lingering sense of dread

Eerie Liminal Exploration in “Pools” — A Quiet Journey Through Endless Empty Spaces

Step into *Pools*, a surreal exploration game that blends calm minimalism with quiet dread. This atmospheric release makes wandering through pristine hallways and still water feel strangely haunting — perfect for fans of liminal-space horror and “empty world” atmospheric games.

The game’s artificial pools and stark corridors create an unsettling calm, enhanced by immersive sound design and subtle environmental storytelling. As you roam its deserted spaces, the persistent feeling of being “forever stuck at 3AM” turns each corner into a soft, creeping mystery — a great pick for players seeking mindful exploration games with a psychological twist.

Developed by Finnish creator Tensori, *Pools* launches on iOS with a focus on meditative tension, ambient eeriness, and dreamlike architecture. Whether you're killing time in a queue or settling in for nighttime chills, this minimalist horror experience invites you to wander, listen, and embrace the quiet unease of empty places.

• Explore pristine hallways and quiet pools
• Walk around amidst the emptiness
• There's no one watching you, apparently
