Sincere Deceit is a fangame based on the indie title OFF by Mortis Ghost. You play as The Batter once more, dropped into a world slowly falling apart from a mysterious force corrupting it.

Sincere Deceit is a horror game at heart, and thus deals with many heavy topics, such as violence/cruelty, gore/body horror, suicide, cult indoctrination, jumpscares (both visual and audio based) and some flashing on the screen. This is not a game for the faint of heart.
