How it feels

A quiet, reflective simulation RPG where you navigate unseen systems and muted tensions.

What players say

Players praise the fake OS interface and investigative puzzles, but opinions split on the horror: some find it genuinely unsettling while others say the jumpscares can be cheesy. The story starts strong but many feel the ending is rushed or confusing, and the game is short at 3 to 5 hours.
