How it feels

A tense, atmospheric exploration of a dark castle where unpredictable traps and a stalking monster force you to adapt on every run.

What players say

Players enjoy the co-op horror with friends but find it shallow on content. Solo play is intense and the jester's AI can feel unfair, teleporting to players. Newcomers face a steep learning curve before unlocking skills that ease the difficulty.
