How it feels
A slow-burn point-and-click adventure that feels like unraveling a cryptic mystery through tense investigation and brain-teasing puzzles.

What players say
Players describe a free, short point-and-click adventure with intentionally retro digitized graphics. The hotspot indicator is essential for seeing interactable objects, and puzzles can be unfair, especially a combination lock. There are three endings, but two are similar bad outcomes. The inventory is laggy, and the experience takes about an hour.
