The game also encourages thorough exploration, with players appreciating the attention to detail in the environments and the rewards for closely examining each area.

❤ Immersive Atmosphere

Reviewers consistently laud the game's strong sense of atmospheric immersion, crediting the excellent visual design, lighting, and sound design. The first-person perspective, coupled with cinematic camera angles and environmental storytelling, effectively draw players into the unsettling, surreal world of the protagonist's psychological journey.
