How it feels

A tense, story-driven mystery where you navigate a collapsed building and unravel a murder through dialogue and investigation.

What players say

Players praise the art and music but split on the story: some love the character drama and real-time tension, others find the dialogue tedious and the mystery underwhelming. The conversation system is repetitive, the skip function doesn't work for new game plus, and a mandatory bad first ending plus no flowchart annoy many.
