How it feels

A slow, melancholic exploration through a decayed mental health facility, solving puzzles while feeling watched by the building itself.

What players say

Players say it is a fun but not scary mascot horror game with simple puzzles and a memorable song about Omelette Man. Some note it is short and only the first chapter is out. A few complain about unintuitive puzzles or an annoying bug where a companion gets left behind.
