How it feels
A short, atmospheric walking experience through an endless yellow maze captured with grainy VHS effects, focused on unease and disorientation rather than action.

What players say
Players appreciate the relaxing, monster-free exploration and the realistic, atmospheric visuals, though many note there is little substance beyond wandering. The game currently has two short chapters and players are split on whether the emptiness feels eerie or cheap.
