Interesting game, with a pretty original idea for the story and monsters. The tense atmosphere is maintained by the paranoia the character feels, the weird things that happen around him, along with the rare but solid jump scares. I think the immersion would have been better if there was some kind of music or sound effects, because the long silence pulls you out of the scene a bit. Apart from this, I have nothing to complain about; the game runs smoothie, and I didn't encounter any bugs. I really recommend it! Here's the full gameplay with both endings: https://youtu.be/dFNXWg7TFc4

Players move through confined, everyday spaces that gradually become distorted, uncovering fragments of narrative through observation rather than direct exposition. There are occasional interactive elements and light puzzles, but they serve more as a means of guiding progression than as core challenges. The experience unfolds slowly, encouraging players to pay attention to small details and interpret what they encounter. This restrained design helps maintain immersion, though it also means the game offers limited variety in how playe…

This game gave me goosebumps. Great visuals and eerie atmosphere. But, there are item bugs like [spoiler] a pair of socks in the sink in the bathroom [/spoiler] that fell under the map when I interacted with it. Here is my full game play: https://youtu.be/uCrbGJem7_M P.S: I maybe can not sleep for a while after have completed this game
