How it feels

A brief, tense crawl through a dark, disturbing abandoned prison that feels oppressively unsettling.

What players say

Players agree the game is extremely short, completing in 10 to 15 minutes, and see it more as a cheap, atmospheric experience than a full horror title. Some find it scary mostly through sound design, while others say there are no real jump scares and the gameplay becomes repetitive quickly.
