How it feels
A contemplative and emotional precision puzzle-platformer where you control a voodoo doll and its ghost, timing actions to solve challenges in a sorrowful forest.

What players say
Players praise the art and soundtrack and enjoy the ghost-based puzzle mechanic, but many find the controls clunky and floaty, making precision platforming frustrating. The mechanic is not explained in-game, leading to trial and error. Players split on whether the puzzles are satisfying or poorly executed.
