How it feels

A tense top-down survival horror where you scavenge for limited ammo with no hand-holding, as you delve deeper into a dark, lore-rich world that slowly erodes your sanity.

What players say

Players describe it as a short, atmospheric top-down shooter that can be finished in about an hour. The minimal visuals and sound create a claustrophobic, suspenseful feel. Reviews split on difficulty: some find it well-balanced and challenging, others say the final level spikes hard, while a few report it is too easy for experienced players.
