This is really fun, and very inspiring game design. You can do so much with a simple concept!

I love the atmosphere this builds. I was unsettled and filled with dread the whole time. The contrast between the surreal, disembodied experience of being in a dream and the physicality and visceral feeling of the body horror really did it for me. It's the flesh invading the mind, a reminder that it, too, is subjugated to the body. But it's also so much more than that. It escapes interpretation. It's a dream, after all.

I like the dry ending and how it denies you closure -- it's sudden and anticlimactic, and in that way, manages to make me feel like I just woke up from an uncanny dream that my mind can't quite make sense of. The visuals and audio are also really on point and make this a great experience.

(Copying my review here because I did not understand how reviews work and thought it'd show up as a comment. Tragic.)

Absolutely in love with this game! It hits just the right spot between leaving hints and information about what might've happened to cause the current situation, while still leaving enough ambiguity that it feels natural and intriguing. The pacing is wonderful, and I love going through her daily tasks in what almost seems like it'll be a cute life simulator. It really helps that the monotony of her tasks and how small her two-room life is accentuate her slowly losing a grip on reality.
