You explore a strange island at your own pace, guided only by sound and sight, uncovering its dark history through environmental clues.

What players say

Players praise the atmosphere and graphics but are sharply divided on the gameplay. Many find the puzzles obscure, the story vague and poorly written, and the lack of saves or checkpoints punishing. Bugs like crashes and falling through the world are common complaints.
