How it feels

A stylish, fast-paced hunt through a dark, moonlit city where combat against giant beasts blends with motorcycle traversal.

What players say

Players praise its dark cell-shaded style and eerie atmosphere, comparing it to Suda51 games and Shadow of the Colossus for its harpoon and climbing mechanics. Combat gets called stiff and janky, with clipping issues and quiet attacks, but the motorcycle exploration and world design win over most. The game is short, around a few hours, and players recommend rebinding controls due to odd defaults.
