How it feels
A tense game of hiding and searching through a dark house while avoiding a roaming scientist, blending stealth puzzles with a 1980s retro horror feel.

What players say
Players call it a fun but short escape-the-house game in the style of Granny or Evil Nun. It takes about 90 minutes, mixes puzzles with a mad scientist who stalks you, and has a tense atmosphere more than outright scares. Bugs like key items clipping through walls are a common complaint, and players are split on whether the difficulty with the scientist on is rewarding or frustrating.
