How it feels

a tense, story-driven noir mystery where you piece together clues by observing neighbours from a distance in a 1950s English setting

What players say

Players praise the 1950s atmosphere and story twists, but many report persistent bugs years after release. The wheelchair-based movement and fixed camera frustrate some, and the detective board puzzles feel like busywork. Opinions are split on the ending, with several calling it unsatisfying.
