STORY

After being dragged out of reality by a mysterious entity, you are left to explore a complex of uncanny spaces all alone. Explore themes of loss, nostalgia, and heartbreak as you venture ever deeper into this world.  Leverage various systems discarded by a company which previously investigated this dimension in order to eventually open the gate to freedom.

  • Immersive and natural camera movement

  • Extensive customizability: Make it your own!

  • "Soft" puzzle mechanics for an interesting yet realistic experience

It offers a full start-to-finish story-based experience as well as a relaxed adventure mode.
