Who It's For
This game is designed for players who enjoy atmospheric psychological horror, linear storytelling, and a good dose of supernatural dread.

Be warned, however, as the developers note it contains mature content, including blood, gore, and disturbing psychological elements, making it unsuitable for the faint of heart.
