The verdict
A short, free, atmospheric psychological horror episode of about 30-60 minutes with good audio and visuals. Skip it if you want a long game, a deep story or tough puzzles.
Great for
Fans of short, story-driven psychological horror without heavy jumpscares who want a free hour
Main risk
Very short, and the story can feel shallow or predictable
