The overall ambiance was immersive and the mechanics definitely got into a rhythm that I liked. Perhaps I wasn't paying enough attention, but I did find the ending confusing, and so did my friend who was watching me play. At first, I was a bit disappointed, I was hoping for more monsters and a heavier dash of dread, but overall not a bad game and I've had more time to wrap my head around it. A little more runtime wouldn't have hurt !!1 found this helpful

neat
Good little game.
Not a bad game but very short. Thankfully it was only 3 bucks, so I don't mind that so much. However the game definitely has potential to be expanded. Hell I'd love a coop game with some of these mechanics.
Iron Lung but with oil
