Felt increasingly claustrophobic =\/ Both in a good and bad way. Actually it started feeling like a horror game where you expect something to happen constantly and it didn't go away immediately when I stopped playing. Can't explain why. Maybe the title reminded me of Justine (the Amnesia dlc thing).\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Graphics are beautiful, music is very nice but also unnerving after a while.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Gameplay wise, pretty confusing. No idea where to go or what shifting the map around did. So I wandered around randomly for a while.. Found the first water thing, no idea how, then nothing more after that.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Also, mouselook speed could be a little lower.
