Very interesting way of telling a story throughout using jump cuts and small dialogue. I like the small aspect of horror added into it and it was a fun and unnerving experience. I played through this game with my friend who recommended it
Falters towards thee end, limping along losing a bit of its mystique by leaning too heavily on its own narrative rather than allowing its literal bone-chilling setting to do most of thee heavy lifting. Which, thankfully, that atmosphere does for a well majority of its runtime. Are you lost? You are lost.
Sharp corners, a seemingly endless sheet of a white void; trees that look the same; sled dogs that might very well turn on you without a second thought but never do; a friend you're unsure is a friend. Who are you? Are you you?
Of course you are, but you are lost.

I didn't really understand this one, but it was interesting anyway. I can tell there is a lot more here, I just didn't pick up on it. For that reason, I can only give this game a 3.5 in good faith. In all honesty, I'd be better not rating this game at all. I still recommend it, though.
Haven't played something as narratively disorienting since Paratopic, which seems like a clear influence on this game's approach to time and perspective. Great stuff for what it sets out to do. Excelent atmosphere and vibes as well. Just wish it gave me more to chew on horror wise... Even Paratopic remembered that you need some sort of payoff at the end (even if said payoff is a jumpscare that has you shrieking "what the fuck" a bit-too-loudly-for-your-own-good at your poor computer screen).
A good fear of the unknown type horror game the story kept me interested, its also pretty cheap which is good although it is pretty short after completing it I had around 1.2 hours still if you like horror games I think this is a good game to try.
For an hour I really liked it and especially it’s presentation and how it connected through gameplay even though it had a really obnoxious level that I’m pretty sure everyone will know immediately once they reach it and you can get lost quite easily in some occasions although it does do it’s best to redirect you and give hints without feeling in your face obvious but other than that I really liked how it all came together at the end although it does feel a lot like a one-off thing honestly don’t see much point in replaying it until I forget everything.
