Personal thoughts
Writing a synopsis without giving too much away is so hard for this game >v< anyway
While not one of the scariest horror games I've personally played that is absolutely not a slight against it. Everything from the beautiful monotone red, black, and white illustrations, to the music and sound effect created a haunting atmosphere. But most of all I really enjoyed the story. It's a mystery that flawlessly treads the line between reveling new information to the player to keep their curiosity satisfied and simultaneously having them ask new questions as the story and the world is reveled. Dove especially was a highlight. Child characters can be hard to write but I think they nailed it. Overall I really quite enjoyed it, it was longer than i thought it be, but I'd never complaint about that.
