How it feels

You explore an abandoned prison through grainy VHS-style footage, uncovering a slow-burning, realistic mystery with an unsettling atmosphere.

What players say

Players praise the tense atmosphere and sound design but consistently note the game is extremely short, often beaten in under 30 minutes. The first half is considered stronger than the second, and the ending disappoints some. A heartbeat sensor near items adds dread, though the game relies heavily on jump scares.
