Key gameplay features include:

  • Visceral combat that challenges players to hone survival instincts

  • Innovative puzzle design that integrates deeply with narrative pacing

  • Atmospheric environments packed with hidden items and lore

  • A reality-bending mechanic that transforms the game world at will

  • An original, dynamic score that shifts between haunting ambiance and intense dread
