How it feels
You methodically scan sterile environments for subtle oddities under the pressure of reset penalties, creating a quietly unnerving tension that crawls under your skin.

What players say
Players say Shift 87 is a short anomaly-finding game with atmospheric audio and liminal environments. The anomalies are generally easy to spot, making it less tense than similar games, though players must replay levels to find all 66 anomalies. Some note reused assets from developer Reveil, and opinions split on whether the gameplay feels too repetitive.
