How it feels

A tense, lonely crawl through an abandoned space facility where dwindling oxygen and a watched feeling create constant pressure.

What players say

Players wander dark labyrinths collecting oxygen tanks until they die or reach a sudden ending. The core oxygen mechanic feels repetitive, goals are unclear, and movement and flashlight controls are rough. A few see potential, but most recommend skipping even though it is free.
