How it feels

It feels like slowly walking through a haunted house of memories, uncovering eerie clues in a low-fi, grainy world.

What players say

Players are split on this short, atmospheric horror game. Some love its homage to late-90s chain mail and VHS urban legends, while others find the slow text scrolling and aimless walking tedious. The game's curse mechanic and Japanese horror vibes echo works like Ringu, but the execution falls short for many due to a confusing story and lack of clear objectives.
