How it feels

A slow-burn, text-driven survival story where every decision weighs heavily on your chances in a grim, undead world.

What players say

Players say the writing feels dry and the characters lack depth. Many complain that choices are an illusion, with the story forcing you into missions you want to avoid. The ending frustrates some as it turns out everything was a dream. Players also note limited save points and frequent death, making the game punishing without much payoff.
