How it feels

A tense, investigative horror game where you sift through digital evidence to uncover hidden dangers lurking in a seemingly normal town.

What players say

Players love the tension of alternating between investigating cases and evading an intruder, with a detective mode that removes the horror for fans of pure puzzling. The game offers over 200 different cases, but some find it extremely difficult and scary, and there is disappointment that a direct sequel has not arrived.
