How it feels

A tense, narrative-driven horror experience with PS1-style graphics and a dark immersive atmosphere, simulating the feel of exploring a killer's house through a reporter's perspective.

What players say

Players say it's a short survival horror game with chase sequences and puzzle solving, but the killer's movement in Chapter 1 feels punishing until you learn its pattern. Reviews are split on Chapter 2's ending, with some wishing the game ended sooner. Many find the $5-6 price steep for the runtime and hope future chapters are included.
