If you die, you have to wait for the loading screen to finish, and then you have to watch the unskippable cutscene and listen to the enemy’s boring monologue again and again before you get a chance to try again. Why don’t you devs listen to gamers? This issue with the game design has been known for ages. Otherwise, it’s a decent horror game, but that aspect is so frustrating that I had to “finish” the game by watching it on YouTube! Oh, and the optimisation is practically non-existent. It’s a shame, because the story and visuals are very good. I still recommend this game, if you have some patience.

For me, this game is one of a kind... While you're playing, you can't wait for it to end, but by the very end, you don't want it to end... The game has a great atmosphere. The voice acting is wonderful. For those who want to play, I highly recommend going through the entire game from start to finish in one sitting. Otherwise, you might miss out on that powerful climax. We’re hoping for a sequel!

A glorified 3rd person walking sim. That sounds harsh, but I did like this game. No combat, just a few sneak and chase scenes that are very easy. The rest is walking around finding the story. And the story is good. The atmosphere is great. The soundscape is solid. The graphics are nice. If you like Silent Hill but thought it had too much combat, then this is for you. 6.5/10

It’s a "ok" short game, it's mostly a walking simulator though, with silly puzzles/monster chases to pretend that you're doing "something" but you're really not. the story feels kind unfinished IMO. Basically a narrative exploration game with passive storytelling and minimalist tasks. Still worth playing. it's a good game.

The game was surprisingly good. The story was easy to follow, though there were certainly parts that went over my head a bit. I enjoyed the story and its progression, and the gameplay and graphics were well executed. The atmosphere was also good. Huge praise to the game's writer. The only thing I didn't like about the game was the fixed camera angles.
