Can't figure out the first key but I got the other 2. I don't play many horror games because I'm not easily scared but this game was very tense and kept me on edge the whole time. Good job all of you!

thanks for the feedback, unfortunately we didnt have enough time to get playtesters to see how difficult the puzzles were. hint if u still want to try: a->z, b->y etc

Thanks for the hint! I went back and beat it. I think the reason most people didn't get it is possibly because the code for the first file isn't a normal word in English. It makes sense but it's written differently. Thank you though, I still enjoyed the game!

Very cool concept. As other people have said, the puzzles are very hard, so maybe unlocking hints by destroying ghosts or an easier lock would be helpful. The camera control would be cool if it had a keyboard option as well.

the puzzles could be a bit easier, but the ambient and models are nice

The horror is SO well done here.  The first time a ghost appeared, it actually got me a bit and that's no easy feat! I may not be smart enough to solve the puzzles on the pc, but I think I got 2 of them and I wasnt sure how to submit then since I couldn't unlock the PDFs but overall the game is very fun. The mechanics of balancing sanity, ghosts while also bending my brain to do puzzles on a PC is brilliant. Fantastic submission.

thank you so much for the kind words!
