About the game

Silvia never runs from evil—she makes it her business. Eccentric yet warm-hearted, this seasoned modern exorcist has mastered the art of confronting the supernatural, turning haunted places into tangible nightmares. But on this fateful night, nothing goes as planned.

What players say

With the caveat that I am not intimately familiar with survival horror games, I'd recommend this as a part of the DYA collection. As in, if you buy that, don't skip it, but on its own merits? There's a lot of flaws. (Edit: On reflection, I've recommended lesser games with fewer caveats. It stayed fun for four playthroughs, it's a good game.)
