How it feels

A darkly poetic, 30-minute immersive narrative that traps you in a nightmarish prison, blending fantasy and horror with a melancholic curiosity about a perpetually smiling giant.

What players say

Players call it a 30-minute 360 animated film rather than a game, with no VR interactions beyond head-gaze menus. Fans praise the dark and poetic story and art style, while one reviewer found the story and music uninteresting.
