How it feels

A cold, eerie journey through a silent, post-Soviet town where you search for truth with only a flashlight and cryptic notes.

What players say

A short, linear horror game that players finish in one sitting, often comparing its atmosphere to Silent Hill and praising its authentic Latvian winter setting. However, players are split on the lack of a save system and punishing checkpoints, with some finding the gameplay frustrating and the controls awkward.
