    I might have stumbled upon the slowest developers ever, utterly incapable of understanding what constitutes an interface for users that don't share their brain.

    When the game starts, you have to click everywhere then press every keyboard key until you randomly discover the only one that does something. During this time, no access to menu, help, options or anything. Please hold your laugh a little longer: Once you've discovered that E was your savior all along, the tutorial starts. It tells you that you have to press E for action.

    Side-scroller adventure with no hints/markers, you'll have to stop at every step and move to face 4 directions consecutively to make sure that you don't miss a hot spot. And I already can't wait to get a refund. I do not keep trashware installed on my computers. Need I add that the game doesn't auto-save, doesn't let you save, doesn't auto-checkpoint...? That you need to spot the checkpoints and activate them yourself each time. That it's keyboard only... except for popups that react to nothing but the mouse? That the texts appear character by character?

    A disappointing debut by a clearly talented developer.

    Those who go in expecting regular horror fare will be pleasantly surprised.

    Deeply atmospheric artwork and an excellent soundtrack set the premise for a deeply personal horror experience that loses its footing when it comes to hit or miss puzzle design and stealth sections that seem to punish the player, detracting from an otherwise very strong experience.
