A slow, melancholic visual novel where you witness a troubled boy's descent into psychological unease in a quiet historical setting.

What players say

Players call this a short visual novel with a gripping story, a good twist, and a strong atmosphere helped by the music and sound design. They note the choices give only an illusion of agency, but the ending reframes the story in a way that makes it worth multiple playthroughs.
