Trapped in darkness, you must use visualized sound to guide your way through threatening environments. The sounds you create will bounce off obstacles, revealing the shape of the surrounding world. It won't be long before your only way of sensing the world attracts a horrifying evil that devours both sound and souls.
Survive through 80 levels that will make your heart race and leave you with an irrational fear of red lines. A foreboding soundscape, best experienced with headphones, sets the tone for your journey. Explore, solve puzzles, and most importantly - stay alive.

Wish I could get a refund

It’s a good thing Apple is switching to a subscription service. They recommend games like this and it’s obvious in 30s it was a horrible mistake, but your money is completely wasted. They don’t even show you what the “gameplay” is like. At first I thought the “game” was buggy, and only later did it hit me it was just poorly designed.
Amazing

I found this game to be a bit odd at first. Then was introduced with the enemy’s and traps and was intrigued by the game play then so on so forth with all the puzzle levels. This is my first game review and really am still enjoying to play now. Keep up the good work!!
Woah...

Ok, this is a horror game, but it’s disappointingly not that scary, but who cares? This game is absolutely amazing. It uses a great mechanic, has great sound, and is very, VERY hard at times. Really, the only thing that’s scary is the enemies. They sometimes come out of nowhere and and that causes you to panic and accidentally run right into them. Also, the death sound effect. Holy crap, the death sound effect. It starts with a scream, then you hear bones cracking, blood spattering, and chunks of flesh falling to the ground. It’s delightful. Sarcasm intended.
Not what I expected (in a good way)

Holy heck, when I first saw this game on Chills I was like: “Lol this looks so boring, hahahaha” but when I actually played it I was like: “woah this game is so fun.”
Awesome yet a bit scary

As a developer myself my first thought when I saw this game featured was, “Those echo effects are soooo cool!” And after buying it I gotta say this is very well made. I never been a fan of scary movies nor especially games, but I love puzzles (Monument Valley is a fav) and avoiding red stuff you can’t see didn’t seem that scary. I have bought it now, love the price btw, and surprised myself that that aspect is actually a bit scary. I’m good and think this game is awesome! But if you really don’t like horror (I wasn’t exactly frightened just nervous- I’m very competitive) even if it doesn’t seem all that creepy— beware.

I am a huge scaredy cat and can’t watch scary movies or anything because I end up crying, and this game is definitely really creepy and scary. But it is such a thrill playing this game. I was frightened but could not stop playing this game. I love that it makes you think, strategize, and keeps you on your toes. I have finished this game and still replay and replay! I love this!
Pretty good

It’s a pretty good game. The game mechanics are at times hard to remember but... pretty good.
Unsolvable Glitch Apple TV
NobodyUnoe
Unsolvable floor due to poor adaptation to Apple TV- you can’t throw rocks to distract the monster like on other platforms. When I knew I had solved it, but couldn’t do what was necessary, I checked a variety of video walkthroughs which verified the issue was Apple TV. I’ve written weeks ago to the company, and they’ve ignored my support request. Generally, before that glitch halted all progress, it was way too easy and a bore. Don’t waste your money.
