About The Doorframe: Locked away in a facility far underground lies a mysterious and foreboding doorframe. There is no door, yet remains open a gateway into a familiar place. You are an employee whose job is to enter it, record what lies within, and get out. At least that was the case originally in this Survival Horror.
