How it feels

You wake trapped in a pitch-black cellar with only a blinking VHS camera and a whispering stain, slowly piecing together the horror through a journal that reads your thoughts aloud.

What players say

A short found footage horror game with escape-room puzzles and a voice in the wall asking for a hand. Players like the atmosphere and lack of cheap jumpscares but some find the monster chase frustrating and item-hunting poorly guided.
