How it feels

You play as a stranded delivery person navigating a rain-soaked city with a murderer on the loose, where every choice feels weighty and leads to one of many grim or hopeful endings.

What players say

Players praise the striking visual style and soundtrack, but opinions split on the endings: some find them abrupt or underwhelming, while others enjoy the variety. The game is very short, around an hour, and its fragmentary story requires seeing multiple paths to piece together the narrative.
