Developed by René Rother · Published by Devolver Digital
You play as a young woman taking revenge on the cult that ruined her life. The story unfolds between levels through brief, mostly wordless memories as she hunts the cultists and pursues their leader.
Each level is a tactical shooting puzzle: scout the area, plan a route through every enemy, then fire a single bullet. After each hit, redirect the bullet toward another target, using its path to navigate obstacles and take advantage of the environment.
As you progress, new abilities and tougher enemy defenses add complications, including ways to curve or accelerate the bullet. Optional level challenges and scores encourage replaying stages, while an unlockable endless mode offers another way to test your aim and planning.
Players who enjoy the game often highlight its unusual one-bullet puzzle-shooter format, the satisfaction of planning and executing a route through multiple targets, and its striking, moody visual style. Reviews also appreciate the gradual addition of abilities and challenges. Some players find the campaign too short or the repeated level loop less engaging, and a number mention frustration with locating enemies or interpreting optional challenges.
