How it feels

You sit at an old desktop, running a simple spot-the-difference game that slowly worms its way into your mind, leaving a lingering unease.

What players say

Players praise this as a faithful adaptation of the Smile Dog creepypasta, with an unsettling early-internet desktop aesthetic. It is very short, taking about an hour to see all three endings, and uses personal details like your own name to heighten the atmosphere.
