How it feels

You descend a seemingly endless stairwell in the dark, guided only by a torch and the recorded voices of those lost before you, creating a tense, lonely atmosphere of slow dread and mystery.

What players say

Players find the game very short, around 2-3 hours, and report frequent bugs from release including broken mouse controls and softlocks that require restarts. Horror elements get mixed reactions: some like scripted scares and stair sequences, but many say the AI is predictable and not intimidating after the first encounter.
