How it feels

A tense, atmospheric point-and-click horror game where you cautiously explore a dark forest, piecing together mysteries while feeling a constant undercurrent of dread.

What players say

Octave is a very short 2D point-and-click horror game with a strong atmosphere and good art, but players are split on its value. Most agree it can be finished in under 90 minutes, and many complain that there is no saving within chapters and the story is almost nonexistent. Some find the puzzles logical, while others call them frustrating and obtuse.
