How it feels
A poignant, slow-burn RPG where you feel the weight of time slipping away as your character weakens, driving a melancholic search for lost memories and love.

What players say
Players praise the original premise of a maxed-out hero who grows weaker over five days, but many find the need for multiple runs to see the full story repetitive and hard to navigate without a guide. Opinions are split on whether the execution lives up to the clever concept.
