How it feels

You test a horror game as a debugger, spotting out-of-place bugs while the game itself feels tense and unsettling, but with a darkly comedic twist.

What players say

A short, absurd horror-comedy where players spot deliberate bugs in a parody of Japanese office life. The humor lands well, though the English translation is poor and the loop wears thin before the four endings. Players compared it to other joke-heavy anomaly games like Love Love School Days.
