What players say
A short horror game with an unexplained story and some genuinely creepy moments. The gameplay is good and keeps things interesting, but I felt the story lacked explanation. The game never really explains why the house is haunted or what caused the supernatural events. However, the cursor and interactable/pickable objects need some improvement, as they can sometimes be difficult to identify or interact with. Overall...

Really enjoyed this game. Took about an hour or so to complete. Graphics are good, story is good (for what it needs to be), and the gameplay is exactly what you would expect from this dev - a walking simulator with a creepy atmosphere and some jumpscares. This feels like it is JustTomcuk's early work. It plays just fine, but it doesn't feel as refined as his more recent games. I started with his newest game...
There's nothing I would really recommend. The story isn't engaging, doesn't make sense and jump scares are non-existent. It seems like this idea needed a way more polishing before making it a game, but it was also the developer's first ever release. Another game released a year later is better, so it's worth giving the newer titles a shot.
