A downloadable game for Windows.

This is not a ‘standard’ horror game. There are no jumpscares, there are no chases, just existential dread in the face of a pending disaster. As someone who can’t play most games in the horror genre, this scratches my itch for creepy content quite well, with an eerie atmosphere, chilling soundtrack, and looming dread. The way the game handles it’s lore could use a bit of work, in my opinion, as they provide very little basis for what questions we might have until the final decision of the game, giving a feeling as though you’re being dragged along until you fully understand what the stakes are. That said, the characters are interesting, and each one has their own personalities, motivations, and principles, which shape their story lines, and how they effect the endings. I feel as though if they’d been given more time to show interactions with one another before the finale, choices would have been even more impactful and meaningful. But even as it stands, the game’s vibes are still on point.
