A calm, reflective journey through a melancholic world, driven by exploration and narrative.

What players say

Players praise the Tim Burton-inspired art and the forbidden love story between a zombie boy and a human girl, but many report characters frequently getting stuck in level geometry, forcing restarts. The game is short at around 4-5 hours, with 14 diorama-style levels and a single looping music track.
