How it feels

A melancholy, deliberate point-and-click mystery where you and your daughter explore a creaky old house, sifting through memories and hidden objects to uncover a ghost's past while your choices shape the outcome.

What players say

Players call it a short, emotional point-and-click story about grief and domestic violence with cozy art and lofi music. They praise the inclusive narrative and replay value for different endings, but some find the dialogue options too rigid and the hint system vague. Opinions split on pacing, with some saying the ending feels rushed.
