How it feels

A slow, tense walk through dark, familiar places where ordinary turns unsettling, relying on small acts of courage to reach safety.

What players say

A very short walking horror game that lasts about 30 minutes with barely any puzzles or events. Players are split: some enjoy the uneasy night walk and cat searching, while others find the screen too dark, the gameplay dull, and a few compare it unfavorably to the game Tsugunohi.
