SCP-096 Modest
SCP-096 Modest places you inside the mind of one of the Foundation’s most infamous anomalies. You are the Shy Guy, a being that remains docile until someone lays eyes on its face. When that happens, a primal rage takes over, driving you to eliminate the witness at any cost. The game captures this tension by blending stealth and pursuit mechanics into a tense loop of hide, seek, and strike. Your journey unfolds across a series of dimly lit facility corridors, labs, and storage rooms. You must study guard patrol routes, use vents and lockers to break line of sight, and time your movements carefully. Each level increases the complexity of the layout and the number of personnel, forcing you to adapt your approach. The goal is to reach the exit without triggering a face-to-face encounter, but when you do, the chase begins—fast, frantic, and unforgiving.

What is SCP-096 Modest
In SCP-096 Modest, you embody the infamous shy creature navigating a hostile facility. Your survival depends on staying unseen until you can slip away.
How to Play
Use arrow keys or WASD to move SCP-096, and press Space to hide in suitable spots. Avoid being in direct line of sight of any personnel; if spotted, you must catch the witness before they raise an alarm.
Tips for Playing
- Watch guard patrol patterns from a distance before moving; patience often pays off.
- Use vents and lockers not just for hiding, but to break line of sight during escapes.
- Make noise deliberately—like knocking on a wall—to lure guards away from your path.
- When a chase begins, memorize the layout; corners and doors can help you flank the target.
- Save your sprint for critical moments; stamina depletes quickly during prolonged pursuits.
