Reviews

“Stark stylised flair in a ‘realistic’ forest is a great look. It can feel like how old horror movies used lighting, fog, and lens filters to blast otherworldliness, which is great... Good stuff”
Rock Paper Shotgun

“It isn’t just the striking visuals or the eldritch underpinnings of this entry in this New Weird Horror, but how it all comes together to form a rich tapestry with drawn out presentation in a way one would only typically come to expect from the cinema.”

About This Game

“The porter drew a map for me on the back of a brochure. In smudged pencil he showed me where to turn from the main road onto a dirt road and then where to leave the road entirely. I left the streetlights behind me and traveled into the dark."
