How it feels

A frantic pixel-art dash through a dark maze, combining arcade shooting with survival and stealth as you run and destroy.

What players say

Players describe a creative but rough indie where you collect items to seal gates, but the inability to carry more than one item frustrates. Movement feels stiff and the story is pieced together from notes, though the lighting creates a creepy atmosphere.
