How it feels

A solitary journey through a grim fantasy world, where each decision carries weight and the atmosphere is thick with mystery and danger.

What players say

Players praise the writing and worldbuilding, often comparing it to Disco Elysium, and say it feels like a single-player tabletop campaign. Many note the game is very text-heavy with no voice acting, and some find the story lacking or the time management mechanic punishing, though it can be disabled.
