How it feels

Exploring an eerie, abandoned brutalist base on a moon while solving puzzles and uncovering a dark secret feels lonely and unsettling, with a slowly building dread.

What players say

Players call it a short, atmospheric VR experience with great graphics but easy puzzles. It takes about 2 to 3 hours to finish. Some report performance stutters and motion sickness from the flying mechanic, while others praise the visuals even years after release.
