How it feels
A tense, first-person psychological horror where you explore your home using real photos, hiding and fleeing from spirits that escalate from harassment to deadly attacks.

What players say
Players call this a short horror game with a charming story and effective scares, but the hiding mechanics are frustrating and controls feel clunky. Many praise it as scarier than modern horror titles, and a few revisit it for Xbox 360 indie nostalgia.
