It’s a pretty rare treat to find a pure escape room style puzzle game in a legitimate horror setting, and Sphenoid nails it. It’s got really great puzzle design, slow-burn horror atmosphere (with occasional intense scares), and a solid prison/hospital setting.

It’s not the most polished game, there’s definitely a pretty low-budget look to some of the animations and characters. But it still manages to satisfy that dark blood-soaked asylum feel.

Pretty much every puzzle is well-made, zero moon logic. The only thing that got me stuck was some hard to see hot points. But otherwise it was a very smooth and engaging escape room puzzle game in my favorite kind of setting! Wish there were way more games like this.
