How it feels

A slow-burn thriller where you explore a deserted facility by reliving the memories of objects, piecing together a dark mystery.

What players say

Players praise the disturbing atmosphere and story but note the game is short, around 2 hours. Many criticize the lack of a run button, frustrating door interactions, and a trial-and-error design that punishes failure. The ending leaves a sour taste regardless of choice. Some say the developer stopped supporting it after release, leaving bugs and a bad translation unfixed.
