How it feels
You explore a silent, dimly lit bunker and control a worm to uncover secrets through discovery rather than dialogue.

What players say
Players describe a dark, claustrophobic puzzle game where you control a mechanical worm through underground tunnels. Reviews praise its bleak atmosphere but say it is intentionally confusing with no map or handholding. Opinions split on whether the obscurity feels rewarding or just frustrating.
