About Tourist Trap
Step into the misty heart of Tourist Trap, where your curiosity meets a night laced with suspense and the supernatural. This indie adventure lures you onto a ghost tour through a fog-drenched city on the eve of the legendary Crawfather Festival. The city’s streets are thick with secrets, the humidity hangs heavy, and your eccentric guide seems to know more than they’re letting on. Will you stick close to the group—or let curiosity draw you deeper into the mist?
Tourist Trap offers an immersive, narrative-rich experience designed for anyone craving a short yet unforgettable ride. In every five-minute session, you’ll choose your own path through up to eight distinct tour stops, collecting clues, buying a crawfish, and piecing together tales of vanished tourists. The city springs to life with vivid, moody graphics that set the perfect atmosphere, intensifying your sense of mystery at every turn. The soundtrack—haunting and atmospheric—takes you even further into the story’s eerie embrace.
With two dramatically different endings, every decision you make carves a unique story arc. Repeat playthroughs reward bold explorers with fresh discoveries, hidden lore, and subtle changes shaped by your choices. The interface is streamlined and intuitive, ideal for casual gamers but with enough intrigue to hook even seasoned adventurers. Tourist Trap is free-to-play right in your browser—no downloads required—making it the perfect pick for quick gaming breaks or sharing those "just one more run" moments with friends.
Will you keep pace with the group, clinging to safety, or let your courage lead you off the beaten path? As the fog thickens, every shadow could be the answer—or the next risk. Dive into Tourist Trap today and lose yourself in a city that’s waiting to claim its next story. Can you escape the fog’s embrace before it’s too late?
How to Play
Tourist Trap invites you to embark on a haunting city tour with a simple, accessible control scheme—no complicated commands or lengthy tutorials. Start by pressing play in your browser and immerse yourself in the narrative. Progress through the tour using your mouse or keyboard: point and click (or tap the arrow keys) to advance text, make dialogue choices, and select your next stop. Every decision shapes the group’s route, reveals creepy stories, and steers you toward one of two unique endings.
Pay attention to your tour guide’s cryptic comments and environmental cues—the city’s secrets are woven into every scene and story choice. You’ll visit up to eight spooky stops, each rich with lore and tense atmosphere. While the game is easy to play, don’t let your guard down; danger lurks if you stray too far from the group. For the best experience, play with headphones and allow yourself to be immersed in the foggy ambiance.
Beginners should stick with the group for a safer path, but adventure-seekers can test their luck exploring hidden alleyways or interacting with curious objects. Each run only takes about five minutes, encouraging experimentation and replayability. Whether you’re chasing both endings or searching for every morsel of story, Tourist Trap rewards those who pay attention—and those bold enough to brave the unknown.
