This is definitely a game best played with a notebook at hand and in one sitting; especially if you're as bad as I am at names and descriptions. This was a masterpiece. The walkthrough and in-game hint system work beautifully when you need them, and the story is genuinely a delight. I'm a bit squeamish and could have done without some of the descriptions, but none were so jarring to put me off entirely, and there's no jump scares or anything of the sort so this is the rare kind of horror/thriller game I can actually enjoy. Definitely my current top game of 2026.
I think there's this attitude that surrounds games about choice, and how important it is. And I think that a lot of us that play a lot of story-rich games automatically assume that more choice = better result.
Ultimately, that seems like a bit of a naive attitude. Because this game has next to no such choices, and yet the one it threw up near the end was so impactful that it took me a moment to truly think it over and pick what I did.
the lamp of your body is very well written. Especially given the short timeframe in which it was created. If you're somehow reading this and haven't played this game yet, you should give it a try.
