How it feels

A frantic first-person parkour dash through a nightmarish Balinese temple, demanding precise timing and reflexes to survive.

What players say

Players say the controls feel floaty and imprecise, making jumps a guessing game, while enemies are so aggressive that fighting feels like the only option. The game is built for speedrunners, short at two to three hours, with no level select and a Balinese-inspired setting.
