A quiet, protective journey through a shadowy afterlife where you gently guide vulnerable souls toward safety while wolves lurk in the darkness.

What players say

Players praise the unique art and music, but consistently report severe performance issues like lag and overheating even on high-end PCs. The game is short, around 1.5–2 hours, and players split on whether the lack of tutorials or a map is confusing. Some also note bugs that trap sheep or force restarts.
