I got this game on sale for $2.50, and let me tell you, it was worth every penny. The game has great graphics smooth movement a nice atmosphere a nice story, and an interesting plot twist that will definitely surprise you.

terrible walking sim where you walk through the same room/bush 40 times and hear the same voice lines in different tones. im glad i got this game for $6 instead of $30
