Search the house for clues and solve puzzles to uncover new places. Objects and environmental changes help piece together what is happening.
The game shifts between daytime exploration and more tense nights, when shadows and creatures emerge. Its story draws on memories, dreams, and distortions of reality, leaving much open to interpretation.
Players who enjoyed the game often praised its unsettling atmosphere and the interest of exploring its strange house. Some also liked the shift from daytime puzzles to tense nights, its unusual visual style, and its soundtrack. The indirect, interpretive story appealed to some but left others unsure what was happening.
