A slow, text-driven strategy game where you manage time and relationships under a thin veil of Lovecraftian horror, balancing academic life with secret manipulation.

What players say

Players praise the unique Lovecraftian setting but criticize the restrictive day-night cycle that makes time fly by, clunky UI, and bugs. Many see potential but consider the game unfinished, with missing art and infrequent updates.
