You navigate a shifting reality on a bus, solving puzzles under a ticking clock before each blink into a new nightmare.

What players say

Players say it is a dreamlike horror game where you blink to spot anomalies on a bus and survive, with no real ending. Reviews are split: some enjoy the challenge and quirky details like knocking out the driver, while others find it too hard, buggy, and lacking in anomaly variety.
