About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you prefer a patient, cozy ghost story with melancholy vibes and a stronger finish than constant scares, similar in spirit to Citadel or Diary of the Dead; Not for you if you want fast pacing and frequent shocks.
Pros: slow-burn eerie mood; warm character banter; creepy late payoff | Cons: very little happens; uneven tone shifts; scares feel limited
