A lot of things in town are broken or out of power.

You must try to fix them in order to solve various mysteries and gain an advantage against the creature.


Don't forget that when you come face to face with the creature.

It can kill you in one strike. You can use objects like traps and guns to scare the it.


There are multiple endings in the game.

Each time you start a game, the creature's behavior changes according to your actions. You can have a different experience every time you play.
