How it feels

A short, violent horror-action game where you and up to three friends investigate a sinister town, with gore and tension but limited depth.

What players say

Players call it a very short, linear experience with no real detective work despite the premise. Controls are widely panned, especially the flashlight and camera, and the story ends without a clear answer.
