How it feels

A tense, atmospheric exploration through real locations that feels like a sinister photo novel driven by a slow-burn sense of dread.

What players say

Players play as a stalker and murderer in a photo-fiction point and click format, which some find shocking since the premise initially seems like a detective game. It is short, about an hour, with three endings and a creepy atmosphere, but some reviewers note it unexpectedly rickrolls the player.
