What players say
Players praise the emotional depth and heartwarming ending, despite a slow start. The story deals with heavy themes like trauma, and the atmosphere blends slight horror with tenderness. Some find the jumpscares annoying, and the game is short, around 4–8 hours, with simple puzzles.
