How it feels

A heavy, emotional point-and-click drama where tense choices and a grim post-Soviet setting shape a story about guilt and sacrifice.

What players say

Players describe a bleak, emotionally heavy point-and-click set in 1990s post-Soviet poverty. The hand-painted art and Ukrainian voice acting are consistently praised, but the story offers no relief, ending on a down note. Some mention bugs and the lack of manual saving as frustrations.
