Seemed the Developer had a story to tell and this is his game. I'll recommend it but the story was too depressing to really enjoy.

You must try it! Very nice concept with a good story and ending, there are some jumpscares but the focus is not on them. It's really good.

Although it may not be the most original game, it offers a fresh and intriguing horror experience with a great atmosphere, compelling narrative, decent graphics, and excellent sound design. Considering that it's a short and compact game, I think it's worth trying.

I think the jumpscares are out of place here, otherwise is an actually pretty scary games filled to the brim with creepy moments. It is pretty simple mechanics-wise and it fumbles the ending with something that I don't know if to call it a bug or not. But a good game overall.
