How it feels

A slow, immersive VR thriller where you feel like a detached observer uncovering the fractured memories and dreams of a troubled man.

What players say

Players are impressed by the volumetric video technology but split on whether it is worth the price for a 20-minute experience. Many note that no further episodes have been released, making it feel like an unfinished tech demo.
