A tense, puzzle-driven survival horror where you navigate a protagonist's nightmare-filled mind, using strategy to keep threatening figments at bay.

What players say

Players describe it as a FNAF clone with a unique art style and a disturbing story, but opinions are split on the gameplay, with some finding the night sections repetitive until a severe difficulty spike on the final night that some call unwinnable.
