Reviews

“A nice horror adventure with creepy atmosphere, interesting graphic effects and emotional story (a bit short). Gameplay is like walking simulator. Game expects you to figure what to do on your own.”
Worldwide Reviews

“The game is very good for its price! I nice way to kill some of your time. The sound effects were effective and got my heart jump a beat once or twice, I totally recommend it!”
AlcoGamers

“Horrors! A short yet inexpensive horror game in the Japanese tradition of media related hauntings. Fairly decent, and a quality of tension and ambiance rather than jump scares.”
