How it feels

a somber, atmospheric point-and-click experience that unfolds the quiet tension and sadness of a family struggling with domestic violence and emotional neglect

What players say

Players praise the atmospheric art and music but are sharply divided on the writing and puzzles. The story tackles alcoholism and domestic abuse with a bleak, post-Soviet setting, and is short enough to finish in one sitting. Autosave problems frustrate many, and some find the puzzles feel like padding.
