How it feels
A brief, melancholic pixel-art walk through a confined house with a single looping tune, leaving a lingering sense of isolation and silent introspection.

What players say
Players describe it as a short, free experimental game from the creators of To the Moon, taking about half an hour to finish. Its fragmented story and ambiguous themes leave much open to interpretation, with one reviewer still thinking about it years later.
