How it feels

A charmingly spooky rural adventure where you manage your summer days and fight nightmares with collected creatures.

What players say

Players describe it as a charming but short Persona knockoff set in 1960s Americana, with mixed feelings on combat accuracy and dungeon design. Most praise the pixel art and soundtrack, while noting it runs 15–20 hours without much replay value.
