How it feels

A hand-drawn, story-rich adventure with a mysterious and quiet atmosphere, punctuated by subtle horror and uncertain exploration.

What players say

players praise the eerie atmosphere and unusual Chinese cosmic-horror premise, but many say the demo's first chapter is the high point, later chapters devolve into tedious resource-collection and disconnect from the earlier tension. The AI art and lack of voice acting are widely noted, and the price feels steep given the short length and repeated text.
