Decent but unremarkable mini PSX survival horror
A fairly enjoyable mini PSX survival horror. Despite what other reviewers say, I don't think it explicitly rips off Alisa (the curtain and store and music and vibe are similar though). But for the most part, I found it to be enjoyable, but a couple things held it back.

A fairly enjoyable mini PSX survival horror. Despite what other reviewers say, I don't think it explicitly rips off Alisa (the curtain and store and music and vibe are similar though). But for the most part, I found it to be enjoyable, but a couple things held it back.
The map sucks. It doesn't show your current location, random rooms and doors do not appear, it doesn't always feel properly representative of the space. It does update when doors are locked or not, and shows puzzle locations and clears when they're completed. But it just kinda felt unreliable and frustrating to use.
Combat is simple, easy, and has some really cool designs. I especially loved the lungs and legs boss (though I still don't understand the purpose of that whole room). Puzzles are ok, nothing too fun but serviceable. Exploration is also ok but hindered by the map.
Overall not one of the best in the ranks of low-budget indie projects, but I do think its worth picking up for any fan of the classic style. I would give it like a 6/10.
