How it feels

A meditative, slow-paced first-person puzzler where you drift through abandoned, colorful ruins, uncovering a lost civilization's story through gentle puzzles and a reactive soundtrack.

What players say

Players are split on this short walking simulator with light puzzles. The music and atmosphere are praised, but most agree the puzzles are too simple and repetitive, often described as connect the dots. The cryptic lore and environments get mixed reactions, with some finding them meditative and others underwhelming. The game takes about 1-2 hours to finish.
