You navigate a dim, cramped tunnel in first-person, feeling the constant threat of an unseen stalker while piecing together a grim alchemical disaster.

What players say

Players describe a very short, linear walking experience where the story unfolds through notes and voiceovers. Many mention the tunnels feel too long, but the hidden octopus collectibles and multiple playthroughs for achievements add charm.
