You got a job, which is to take care of an old man during the night in a recently purchased house; this house does not have electricity and you have to rely on some kind of hand crank generators to light the place up, but there is something in the darkness draining their power, don’t let it happen!

❤ Gameplay Mechanics
The focused, plate-spinning gameplay of keeping multiple generators powered at once creates a compelling challenge that requires players to carefully manage their attention and prioritize tasks.
The integration of occasional mini-puzzles, such as repairing generator malfunctions, adds a puzzle-solving element that breaks up the core generator management loop.
The unpredictable nature of Sophie's appearances, which can catch players off guard and force them to quickly flee, encourages players to develop a keen sense of timing and spatial awareness.
❤ Atmosphere and Immersion
The game's reliance on sound design, with the ominous hum of the generators and the unsettling noises that signal Sophie's presence, helps to immerse players in the tense, supernatural atmosphere.
The game's simple, point-and-click navigation and lack of excessive systems or mechanics allows players to fully focus on the core experience, heightening the sense of tension and dread.
❤ Replayability and Progression
The inclusion of a "Nightmare" difficulty mode, which increases the challenge and unpredictability of Sophie's behavior, provides a meaningful incentive for players to revisit the game and test their skills.
The game's checkpoint system, which allows players to make progress and build their understanding of the mechanics, creates a sense of accomplishment and encourages players to persevere through the challenge.
