About
You have just moved into a new house and you are experiencing some horrible nightmares. The nightmares are caused by the Aliens that made the "dark world" which the only access to is through the magic mirror. You've got to find whats behind those nightmares and get rid of the Aliens.
What players say
A Giger-inspired horror adventure whose oppressive nightmare-world atmosphere is its main draw, while the gameplay is notorious for cryptic moon-logic puzzles, pixel-hunting, and an unforgiving timer that strands players in unwinnable states. Mostly remembered as a flawed curiosity carried by its art.
