How it feels

A solitary, slow-burn patrol through a hostile forest under a blood-red moon, where every crackling twig and distant howl feels like a threat.

What players say

Players describe it as a short, atmospheric spot-the-difference horror walking simulator set in a medieval world. It costs two dollars and lasts a couple of hours, with multiple endings and jump scares, but lacks controller support.
