How it feels

A dark, story-driven adventure with a surreal and emotionally heavy tone, balancing psychological horror with moments of dark humor and heartfelt drama.

What players say

Players praise the bleak, emotional story and atmospheric horror, but say the gameplay is the weakest part with janky movement and a frustrating boss in chapter 5. Some also note a single save slot and no accessibility options, though one blind gamer made a mod for that. It runs well on Steam Deck.
