How it feels
A tense ghost-hunting experience where you must stay calm and gather evidence while unpredictable deadly events can end your mission at any moment.

What players say
Players describe it as a cozy horror alternative to Phasmophobia, identifying ghosts through artifacts instead of typical equipment. It is easy to learn and works well in solo or up to four-player co-op, with short rounds and a skill tree. Some note that larger maps feel empty in early access, and a few mention a toxic Discord community.
