Interesting mechanic, doesn't do much with it

The game is essentially a LIDAR walking simulator. + Unique LIDAR mechanic + Graphically interesting. = Atmosphere. I didn't feel claustrophobic or really under threat in the cave. It may not have worked for me. - Limited horror elements. Aside from falling into chasms, you can only die from going into the water in an area. At most you get "glitches" but even that only at times. Outside of the water area, you are never personally threatened. There is no "pull" into the world. - The game rarely does anything interesting with the mechanic. Once or twice something happens, but otherwise you are just walking through static environments. - Limited story. Your character narrates in text (text!). It is not very engaging. - Limited sound. Only rarely do you hear strange noises. What should have been: - The statue should have chased you throughout the cave. Or at least, there should have been "living" things in the cave. - Evidence of subterranean life. - The game had a great opportunity by messing with the perception of the player by moving things. Overall, it is a short, weak walking simulator. At best, I recommend it to walking simulator enthusiast. Get it for pennies while on sale, otherwise avoid. I would recommend Perception instead.
