Your night shift has a personal cost

Backseat is HOGO Games’ psychological taxi horror game, released for Windows on Steam on September 9, 2026. You drive the night shift, question passengers and hack for clues to find your kidnapped wife.

To get her back, you must obey BK26: pick up dangerous strangers at night, learn what they know, and stay alive. These passengers can kill you if provoked, and every passenger behind you could be dangerous.

For the released game, open Steam app 3098050. The old demo listing, app 3838190, redirected to the Steam front page when checked on November 6, 2026.

Your passengers include killers, thieves, fraudsters, and unstable strangers. Listen closely and watch their behavior to uncover what they are hiding before the ride turns deadly.

The taxi's confined space creates constant uncertainty as you repeatedly decide when to watch the road and when to look behind you at the passenger.
