How it feels

A brief, narrative-focused journey where you move through a tense but understated escape scenario, driven by story rather than action.

What players say

Players praise the short, well-written narrative that tackles political and religious persecution, though some note it mirrors real-world struggles. The pixel art and multiple endings encourage replay, and the Brazilian indie origin is a point of pride.
