How it feels

A short, bleak journey through a frozen, dreamlike wasteland where you piece together your purpose through sparse dialogue and haunting music.

What players say

Players praise the atmosphere and soundtrack, but many warn the game is very short at 15 to 20 minutes. Technical issues like a windowed-only mode, 15 fps lock, and long loading times on SSD are common complaints. Some find the ending raw and hope for an epilogue, while others feel it ends just when it gets interesting.
