How it feels

A cute animal world turns unsettling as you explore, solve puzzles, and sneak through a dark and atmospheric horror adventure.

What players say

A short 2D horror adventure set in a world where animals keep humans as pets, praised for its unsettling contrast of cute art and gore. Players note simple puzzles and stealth, but split on the clunky controls and harsh death penalty that wipes your inventory. The story is a single path with no branching endings.
