How it feels

A gentle but unsettling story-driven experience about a father carrying out a holiday mission with his daughter as strange events unfold.

What players say

Players praise the emotional storytelling but are split on the gameplay: many find the simple minigames and small map repetitive, and a hidden boss is widely criticized as frustrating. The narrative around family and loss is described as genuinely moving despite janky controls and rough visuals.
