How it feels

A tense, dreamlike first-person walk through a cruel, fragmented world of smuggling, murder, and eerie discovery.

What players say

Players describe it as a Lynchian surreal horror walking sim with a dense, creepy atmosphere that is often hard to follow. The driving sections take up a lot of time and some find the ending unsatisfying.
