How it feels

A methodical and eerie puzzle adventure that twists classic turn-based combat into a claustrophobic investigation of the battle space itself.

What players say

Players praise the clever premise of being trapped in a battle screen after defeating the demon king, with a tight story that pays off. It is short, about an hour, and cheap, but some note the small save/load buttons are hard to read and there is no auto-save.
