How it feels
A slow, contemplative journey through beautifully rendered static scenes where you solve environmental puzzles at your own pace in near silence.

What players say
Players praise the otherworldly atmosphere and environmental storytelling, but they are split on the puzzle design. Some find the puzzles obtuse and frustrating, especially a piano-based one that requires perfect musical pitch. Others recommend keeping a notebook and expect around four hours of play. The lack of subtitles is a common complaint, and several players note the ending is weak.
