How it feels

A playful, music-driven adventure through a cartoonishly spooky village with singing and body-swapping puzzles.

What players say

Players are split on Wailing Heights. Many praise its charming comic art, catchy music, and clever monster-possession puzzles. But a vocal group finds the gameplay tedious and buggy, with stiff controls and puzzles that can soft-lock the story until the right trigger is found.
