A cooperative survival horror where you explore shifting, spooky environments with friends, solving puzzles and using unique character abilities to survive.

What players say

Players say it is a fun, spooky party game that blends childhood adventure with horror, but early access means many bugs like getting stuck or broken minigames. The carnival map and proximity chat are highlights, and the vibe gets compared to Coraline or a kid-friendly Dead by Daylight.
