A tense exploration through a mysterious mansion with puzzles and traps, driven by an emotional search for a missing uncle.

What players say

Players call this a free RPG Maker horror game with a short runtime, but many put it down at the final chase scene, which they describe as punishing and buggy (the boss sometimes teleports ahead). Reviews also note the lack of background music, the mixed character art styles, and puzzles that feel too simple, especially since the helper character gives answers that are nearly the solution itself.
