How it feels

A lonely, melancholic point-and-click horror experience that feels like trudging through a dark, dreamlike world where every conversation and puzzle is weighted with quiet despair.

What players say

Players praise the story and emotional weight but warn that the gameplay is clunky and there are no autosaves. Many find the writing, art, and soundtrack compelling despite technical problems like crashes and a locked frame rate.
