The year is 1959, you just got a job as a postman in a brand new town called Little Vale. Although the sun is shining and the birds are chirping, this town is shrouded in mystery. Something… unnatural is afoot here.
Storyline

In Helltown, you play as a postman who has to deliver packages to the residents of a brand-new residential development called Little Vale. 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?
