How it feels

A frantic pixel-art survival horror where you manage blood, booze, and bullets while making darkly comic choices.

What players say

Players compare it to LISA: The Painful RPG and Resident Evil, praising its absurdist humor and pixel art but split on the tank-like controls and trial-and-error gameplay. Some find the two main endings lack payoff, though the world and dialogue keep them engaged.
