How it feels

A moody, slow-burn investigation set in a secluded 1897 manor, where unease and secrecy hang over every observation.

What players say

Players enjoy the writing, setting, and Irish folklore, often calling the mystery compelling and well-paced. They split on the time mechanic: some find it clever, others say it becomes irrelevant because the game gives too much time. The game requires a lot of backtracking across the manor, and a few mention long loading times on Steam Deck.
