How it feels

A tense first-person horror experience where the boundary between game and reality blurs, demanding stealth and puzzle-solving while confronting supernatural fears.

What players say

Players call it a promising but buggy Brazilian mascot horror that is very short, around 50 minutes to an hour. The soundtrack and voice acting get praise, but many report progression-halting bugs, poor performance even on mid-range hardware, and a frustrating minigame. There is optimism for future chapters.
