However, when all hell breaks loose, you'll have to run away and hide from insidious monsters while trying to unravel the truth behind it all. In order to do so, talk to the townspeople and explore​ ​the game's many locations​.​ ​Will you be able to escape, or will you just be another lost soul trapped in... Helltown​?​​(Storyline via IGDB)
