How it feels

You navigate a mundane student apartment that slowly twists into a quiet, unnerving mystery where ordinary life meets inexplicable dread.

What players say

Players finish the game in under an hour, often in 30 minutes, and call it a quick experience with several endings. They are split on whether it is scary, some find it not creepy at all while others say it is terrifying. The story is described as basic, with a twist that some enjoy, but the short length and occasional frustration with invisible crosshairs or chase timing hold it back.
