How it feels

A tense, claustrophobic experience where you navigate an abandoned asylum while being taunted and hunted, with hallucinations blurring reality each time you blink.

What players say

Players praise the unique blinking mechanic where you must both avoid and use blinks to progress, which creates tension alongside puzzles and jump scares. The experience is short but satisfying, though many wish for more content.
