A lighthearted yet spooky romp through a detailed underground world, blending campy humor with platforming and combat.

What players say

Players call it a campy, short horror game with a distinctive AI-voiced style and a story based on Portland's Shanghai Tunnels. It gets mixed reactions on the platforming section, which some find frustrating, and the low price helps balance the rough edges.
