How it feels

A dark fantasy 3D platformer where you cautiously explore a gothic, monster-filled resort, collecting items and solving light puzzles while avoiding a deadly environment and helping a silent protagonist.

What players say

Players praise the game's distinctive surreal world and Tim Burton-like visual style, but note the platforming is clunky and the autosave can be punishing. It is a short, atmospheric collect-a-thon with split views on its glitches and lack of action.
