How it feels
A slow, emotionally charged journey through a grey dystopian world where subtle choices in a text-based experience shape a mother and son's search for meaning and colour.

What players say
A very short visual novel, completable in under an hour, that leans on its bleak atmosphere and a limited set of repeated choices. Players are split on the writing: some find it thought-provoking, others think the text is too thin to support its ideas. The lack of a manual save option is a common frustration, and the game's hidden third choice mechanic is the main source of its replayability.
