The verdict
A short, melancholic PS1-style dreamlike puzzle adventure with superb atmosphere and music. Skip it if you dislike obscure puzzles, backtracking, or open-ended stories.
Great for
Fans of slow, atmospheric, melancholic dreamlike games with Silent Hill vibes and interpretive stories
Main risk
Obscure puzzles (TV, organ keys), lots of running around, and a short, ambiguous story
