What players say
Players call it a short, atmospheric horror adventure from the same developer as Distraint, with easy puzzles solved using an in-game camera. Reviews are split on the story and ending: some find it emotionally thin or confusing, others appreciate the vague themes of loss. Jump scares are present but the game is not very frightening.
