One of my favorite itch.io games and currently the highest on my tier list. Genuinely an AMAZING game! 

for such a short game I was terrified! Great game!

un excelente juego, gran ambientación y muy aterrador

great quality and personally I felt the vibes of one of my favourite and most atmospheric movies Ritual. It really resembles with it

This is most likely the best horror game I've ever played. Creepy as hell atmosphere, very well made sound effects and more stuff in the game made it awesome. Thanks for the long awaited from a horror game emotions!

❤️❤️

Hey! The atmosphere, music, and buildup are absolutely superb, especially for such a short game. You nailed the mood perfectly. But please, for the love of all players with motion sickness, add an option to turn off head bobbing — it made me a bit nauseous while playing. Everything else was spot on though!

(+1)

amazing graphics and great gameplay. i love how it isn't confusing at all and things just show up and scare the hell out of you
(+1)

I do like the Blair Witch Project inspiration. Retro eerie graphics with good sounds. Enjoyed this fully. See playthrough below:

Me ha encantado y aterrado a la vez, la unica pega es que es super corto. Adoro la saga de la bruja de blair y este juego lo plasma muy bien . saludos y gracias

PT/BR
Fiquei um pouco com medo no final, foi tudo muito bruto. Esse jogo tem potencial de se tornar algo enorme no terror!

The atmosphere, sounds, and storytelling were beautiful. Truly a disturbing game—thank you for your effort ♥

Really scary house and kept the suspense high.

This game is very suspenseful. It’s like I was DYING to know what will happen next.
