El 39

About This Game

"El 39" is a short horror experience set in the Buenos Aires neighborhood of Constitución in the early hours of the morning.

You play as a guy who's just left a high school reunion party, completely defeated. The girl you liked back in school, once again, didn’t even notice you. It’s already 3 AM, and while trying not to overthink everything, you wander through the streets of Constitución, hoping to catch the last bus of line 39 that takes you home.

After a terrifying encounter with a sock vendor, the 39 finally appears. You try to wave it down, but it drives right past you, leaving you stranded in the neighborhood. You have to find a way back—tomorrow you take the exam that will determine whether you graduate or not. Good luck.

The aesthetic of "El 39" is inspired by classic titles like Silent Hill and Resident Evil.

This is mixed with elements of Argentine popular culture found throughout the game, full of interactables and humor, giving way to what we call a “popcorn horror.”
