Synopsis
After strange and unsettling events during the previous night shift, the museum is restaffing.
Take control of either the Janitor or the Security Guard, each with unique tasks and abilities. The Janitor cleans floors, toilets, and tidies expositions, while the Security Guard monitors cameras, answers check-up calls, and uses a flashlight and flashbang to survive the dark corridors.
