The gameplay focuses on exploration and observation with minimal combat or dialogue choices. The games quiet mystery and atmospheric design set it apart. Set in 2017 it still holds a dedicated following on SteamVR and Oculus platforms with over 50000 hours played collectively. The narrative structure invites repeated playthroughs to catch subtle details tying the two worlds together.
