This game gave me 'Life is strange' vibes, I love it! Really enjoyed listening to sounds, watching Journal and playing! I'd be happy to help game developer with russian translation if necessary.5 found this helpful

Short experience that prioritize a mystery that you're interested in but don't necessarily have to solve. It's supernatural and has those lovecraftian elements without being a long, sloshing visual. It's too it's point, it questions itself, and you're allowed to indulge for a few minutes. Overall, would recommend, fun thing to read for 20 - 40 minutes.2 found this helpful
