If you ever wondered what is the worst thing that could happen after a nap, you just found your game.

Reaching out to psychological horror and fantasy, this Swedish piece, made entirely by 17 students, procrastinates the outcome of taking forty winks, rightly thriving in a nightmarish milieu where craziness bursts forth to the rhythm of an ancient musical box. Players take on the role of Harriet, a woman who recently picked up his son from hockey practice and whose traveler husband sent her a package. On the typical stormy night, the devilish secret of the artifact is disengaged from it.

Even though story is more or less shirt-sleeve, just like mechanics, people were astonished at how visually thorough and scary the product is. This is because developers know the secret of finesse and applied it to their work, focusing on buffing and detailing surroundings in order to maximize the subtle tactical buoyancy: despite taking place in a few rooms, the game never ceases flowing, apportioning new frights and, of course, being excruciating. The ending may be a little rushed, but it also leaves us with an unsettling impression.
