How it feels

A tense, pixelated top-down RPG where a lost girl explores a sinister mansion with allies, solving puzzles and uncovering a conspiracy.

What players say

Players call this a solid horror puzzle RPG with a 4-hour story and multiple endings. Chases divide opinion: some call the vault section unreasonably hard, others enjoy them. The story starts serious but gets comically over-the-top late-game. Puzzles are varied, though the potion mixing and morse code trip up many.
