narrative-mystery
Play styleA useful part of the game is piecing together mystery and story threads.
solo-friendly
FitIt still makes sense as a solo play choice.

cosmic-horror
SettingThe darker pull is eldritch, strange, or cosmic rather than ordinary horror.
Steam review snapshots
It's non Euclidian, It's Metroidy, It's set in a giant neon put-put course from a 90s mall…Its absolute fun to walk around in this maze fortress and find the clues to how one is supposed to escape.For some the design might be confusing, but once you get used to it.Unique art, brilliant concept, ambience and execution.Why it fits
Check it if you want action filtered by metroidvania, single-player.
