How it feels

a short, atmospheric visual novel with a slow-burn sense of dread as you explore an old mansion's mystery

What players say

Players praise the unique blend of 2D visual novel art with 3D exploration in a creepy mansion, calling it a fresh take on the genre. The atmosphere and Lovecraftian feel are strong, but the Early Access version is very short, leaves story threads dangling, and objectives can be unclear. Some report translation issues and a non-resizable window.
