How it feels

A quirky and atmospheric dungeon escape with darkly humorous overtones and a medieval Renaissance aesthetic, requiring light puzzling as you navigate glitched, threatening environments while being taunted by strange observers.

What players say

Players praise the surreal art style inspired by Renaissance manuscripts and the absurd humor, but note the game can be buggy and has quality-of-life issues like no checkpoints and no skip for cutscenes.
