How it feels

it feels like a tense, gothic survival-horror crawl through a mansion where every encounter is punishing and the atmosphere is thick with dread.

What players say

Players describe it as a short, janky 2.5D Bloodborne with a strong Lovecraftian atmosphere. Many praise the setting and pixel art but criticize simple combat, bad hitboxes, and controls. Opinions split on whether the jank is tolerable.
