How it feels

You explore an abandoned Japanese-style hotel at your own pace, piecing together a dark story through environmental clues while the atmosphere stays uneasy and grim.

What players say

Players praise the dilapidated Japanese inn atmosphere and creaking floorboards, but split on the scares: some find it tense, others say jump scares are weak and predictable. The English translation is widely criticized as nearly incomprehensible. The game takes about 2 hours to finish with two endings.
