How it feels
A tense, story-driven point-and-click visual novel with gory, surreal horror and a retro, atmospheric feel.

What players say
Players praise the homage to 80s sci-fi horror like Alien and The Thing, with atmospheric music and a claustrophobic feel. However, nearly all agree it is very short at under an hour, ends on a cliffhanger, and as of years after release there has been no sign of the planned further episodes.
