This game has a way of drawing you in. It doesn't allow the distance of playing as a robot to make you feel safe. I was playing with friends and still felt uneased. I did name the robot Gregory, and he his the bravest robot to exist.

Pretty good indie game. Short, but with a very uneasy atmosphere. I was pleasantly surprised that there weren't any loud noise jumpscares.

Scary 30min exploring game, yet effective The anticipation of jumpscares is what's making it unsetteling. I wouldn't call "cheap" like i read on other reviews the jumpscares, but "simple", yet effective. The first one has you asking yourself if you really want to continue to explore. Brilliant use of the VHS effect and slow movement of the camera. You start thinking it's gonna be like the movie "The Descent" but find body and cosmic horror instead.
