How it feels
A quiet, lonely exploration through a frozen world, heavy with melancholy but carried by a thread of cautious hope.

What players say
Players praise the writing and characters, especially a well-handled implied autistic love interest. The game is short but emotionally intense, with a difficult moral choice at the end that can leave players sobbing. Many note it is very sapphic, and some warn it might be too heavy if you are not in a good headspace.
