This was a great, bite-sized horror game. It had me cycling between fear, hope and despair right until the end.
The writing is phenomenal, I really liked the description and imagery especially during the parts where the plot pauses for a moment to let the narration reflect on the scene. I'd go into more detail but I'm trying to keep this comment as spoiler-free as possible. I enjoyed the writing enough that this alone earned the game 5 stars.
I think the simple art style was effective and the way you used sprites on a static background fit the setting.
The soundtrack got a bit repetitive but the tone fit the game well. If it took a bit longer to loop I think it would've been fine.
Overall I'd definitely recommend this game to people who love horror and good writing. I'm surprised the rating isn't higher, perhaps it's skewed by a few people who can't handle the graphic violence.
