About the Game
Having completed your degree in mortuary sciences, you have taken on an apprenticeship at River Fields Mortuary. Over the past several months you have logged many hours aiding the Mortician in daily tasks along with learning the ins and outs of the embalming process as well as how to properly handle and care for the deceased.
Late one night, you are called into work to handle some embalmings. Death doesn’t keep day time hours. But there is something different about these bodies because there is something different about you. The phone rings with the Mortician on the other end. The rumors are true, and you can not leave.
- Perform embalming tasks while keeping demonic forces at bay
- Practice occult rituals to identify demonic entities
- Piece together clues to banish the demon and save your soul
- Uncover the gripping history of Rebecca Owens, the haunting past of River Fields, and a sinister secret that lies just beneath the surface…
- Ground breaking system makes every playthrough unique, guaranteeing you will never feel completely safe.
- A story that unfolds through multiple playthroughs. Each demon you banish is just a piece of the puzzle
- 10+ hours of content with more to find for inquisitive eyes
Perform embalmings, handle the various jobs around the mortuary, and exorcise demonic forces. All in a day’s work.

Hey everyone! It's been a very busy time working on my next game and being on set for the filming of The Mortuary Assistant movie but I managed to get some time to fix a bug that was blocking progress.
Sorry it took so long to address this issue! I'm still one guy working on about 6 different things. I still want to give love and support to MA but I need to balance that time. Thank you everyone for your continued support of the game and my work!

- Fixed an issue with one of the bodies (blond woman with short hair) that would prevent the player from recording an identifying mark causing a soft lock in progress.

Patch Notes
Miscellaneous:
Bug Fixes:
- Fixed an issue where the Mark would disappear if the shift was quit after attempting to burn the body (NOTE: A larger issue of the retort/body burning event not running is still being looked into. I know it's been reported a number of times but it's a difficult one to hunt down. Part of the issue was if the player exited the main menu and came back, their mark would be gone and they would have to abandon that shift. As a temporary solution, the tablet will now either be placed back at the mark cabinet or in the player inventory. While this isn't ideal to heave to exit the game and return, it will allow users to continue their shift.)
- Fixed an issue where the woman in white may remain after one of the larger haunting events.
- Fixed an issue on controller where the player could rotate the head of the body left no matter what body part the player was inspecting.
- Re-wrote a portion of the retort ending system (work to fixed retort not activating bug)
And as always, please post any issues you come across or feedback you may have in the The Mortuary Assistant Bugs and Feedback Thread or on the relevant channels on the DREADXP Discord.
Patch Notes
Miscellaneous:
- General performance improvements

- Fixed an issue where some events could halt progress if the player did not interact with them
- Fixed an issue where the clown body was pulling from the wrong name list
- Fixed the front door still playing spooky sounds when seasonal events were turned off
