About the Game

On a quiet evening, Inky nestled into his favorite pillow and closed his eyes, expecting the comfort of familiar feline dreams. Yet instead of playful mice and rivers of milk, he slipped into something far more unusual…

The unsuspecting cat was pulled into a shadowy realm of withered, breathing walls and twisting, claustrophobic tunnels. Whispers from nowhere filled the air as the ground quaked under the weight of approaching footsteps.

Is this all just a dream?

As Inky, you’ll venture through his eerie dreamscape — deciphering arcane glyph puzzles, crawling through boxes that open into hidden dimensions, chasing a mischievous ball of living yarn, and evading dark ghastly creatures that infest the dream. Venture inward to the depths to dispel the gloom from beyond.
