How it feels

A tense first-person mystery where you piece together fragmented memories while navigating a foreboding facility under threat of death.

What players say

Players praise the three-character item-swapping twist and find puzzles satisfyingly tough, but many note technical issues: a clunky interface, bugs, broken English text, and one flawed riddle. Fans of escape room games recommend it, though some feel it is less polished than the first game.
