How it feels

a slow, atmospheric puzzle adventure that feels like unraveling a grim mystery through ominous, hand-painted scenes

What players say

Players praise the hand-drawn art and dark atmosphere, but note the English localization is rough and the PC port is missing cutscenes from the mobile original. Puzzles are hit or miss: some find them easy, others frustrating, and reviewers report bugs like disappearing items. The in-game walkthrough helps but also makes the game feel too guided.
