What players say
Players say this is a short post-apocalyptic adventure about a water spirit exploring a dried-up wasteland, clocking in under an hour. They praise the soundtrack and atmosphere, and note that choices lead to multiple endings. The collectible items and NPC interactions are highlights, while the game's length leaves some wanting more worldbuilding.
