A gentle, story-driven journey through grief and mystery with a quiet, introspective tone.

What players say
Players praise the eerie atmosphere and descriptive writing, but warn the beginning is slow. There is a split on the art: some find it fitting for the mood, others call it cheap. The free 18+ version provided through itch.io is widely appreciated. A recurring criticism is that the sole darker-skinned character is a villain, which feels racially insensitive.
