~~~~~

Step into a slow-burn psychological horror through the eyes of a child. Experience the heavy feeling of a broken home, where the only thing you want is to be free.

Gameplay

The game focuses on a child’s daily routine inside the house. You will perform familiar actions and interact with ordinary objects. There are no enemies to fight and no difficult puzzles to solve. The experience centers on emotional pressure and the desire to escape it.

This game avoids cheap jumpscares. Horror is built through atmosphere, sound, and emotional weight. Seen through a child’s eyes, the home feels heavy—where the only source of comfort is a small aquarium fish.
