A good indie survival horror inspired by Resident Evil, Silent Hill and maybe... American McGee's Alice? The whole thing is an exploration of the heroine's mental issues and personal traumas. The world you're exploring is resembling places familar to the heroine, but often twisted in a weird way. Pros: - The story is quite good. - It captures the PSX-era graphics and vibe quite well. - The puzzles are decent. - The boss fights are designed quite well. Cons: - The enemy variety is low, and their designs leave something to be desired. - I sometimes felt the game could use a few more puzzles. - It's a bit too generous with the amount of first aid kits and ammo.2 found this helpful

I will buy any 90's survival horror flavoured games that come out, I have a problem. Fortunately, this is a pretty great one! Unfortunately, most are not... but this is! So, happy days, fill your ~40 year old boots, mate.
If you enjoyed classic survival horror games like Resident Evil and Silent Hill from the '90s, you'll probably enjoy this one as well. Some of the puzzles can be quite challenging, but overall it's a great game.
game looks good but unplayable due to a bug game will make you walk in a circle and there does not seem to be a fix for it out there even though many people have had the same issue
Good game if you like Resident Evil
