A slow, story-driven point-and-click where you explore a cold, mysterious town and piece together a family's tragedy through dreamlike visions and conversation.

What players say

Players praise the Lovecraftian story and atmosphere, but consistently warn about clunky controls, awkward camera angles, and broken menus that can require force-closing the game. Several note it is worth playing for free but would not pay for it.
