How it feels

A text-heavy, atmospheric psychological horror visual novel with abstract, pixel-art style that feels like a dark, introspective board game, driven by emotional and narrative weight.

What players say

Players describe a short, linear psychological horror visual novel with meta humor and a prominent AI-generated art controversy after the developer replaced all illustrations. The story focuses on a crude protagonist and features an AI character named Iris that can interact with the player's files, while the ending leaves the narrative unresolved with hints of a sequel.
