How it feels

A tense stealth game where you play as a cute doll hiding from humans in a traditional Japanese house, blending dark humor with psychological horror and quick game-over stakes.

What players say

Players describe it as a comfy, short collectathon with light stealth and metroidvania elements, comparing it to Chibi-Robo or a Japanese Toy Story. They split on polish: many find it charming and relaxed, while others note janky physics and a high price for its 4-9 hour length.
