What players say
Promised magic and adventure but the game turned out boring and repetitive story fails to hook graphics are outdated and controls are frustrating making it a nightmare avoid at all costs.

1.5/5 Extremely boring indie-horror that could only be 'scary' when played by screamy youtubers. 1.5 for nostalgia for that youtube era and for the fact that the game has cards.

About the game
Сlassic indie horror for one evening. The game has no tips, you need to solve all the puzzles yourself and avoid the monster that wants to devour your soul. Therefore, you need to be very careful and attentive to escape from the nightmare.
