About
Your scars have brought you here. You just haven't realized it yet.
You will play as Bernard Thorne, an old Vietnam War veteran bound in a motorized wheelchair. Navigate through his house and find the traces of his guilt-ridden past. Endure the nightmares that still haunt him as he desperately finds a way to climb up the attic for reasons he does not know.
Bernard Thorne just got discharged from the hospital after recovering from falling down the stairs of his house. As usual, he wakes up from his sleep in the middle of the night. Normally he would read a book and wait for the sunrise, but tonight is different. Tonight, he has to climb up the attic.

I'm glad I stuck with this. I must admit it was frustrating and clumsy at times and I guess it's supposed to feel like that. Some of the timings to complete a puzzle before an instant death are tight. Thankfully, some are more forgiving. It requires some fast thinking and tapping manically on your mouse. There's a lot of reading but it's a great story, even if it is sad and tragic. It pays off at the end though. It's really a story of guilt and acceptance. It's unique in the fact you play as a wheelchair bound veteran and that's something which is a bold move to implement into a game but it works, if not finnicky to manoeuvre. Not massively scary yet haunting all the same. I realised by the end I missed one of the rooms (living room I think), so not sure if that revealed anything or whether it was off limits. Score = 8/10
this game is a true gem, its a painful and yet beautiful gem. going through and learning about Bernard and what all he has gone through and still deals with hurts so much, making you go through fear and sadness at the same time, making you feel like at any second you might be too slow and get caught by whats chasing after you. the pain you feel when you realize what the monsters in his head represent and how they all go through and torment him constantly. by the time i finished the game i was a bit of a crying mess cause i felt so bad for the character and imagining what going through all of this could feel like. how a single episode can make you feel like the worst person in the world, that you're the reason that everything wrong thats going on around you and everyone you love and how dying would just solve it. theres so much about this game i could go on about but im still a bit teary eyed thinking about everything about this game, but it is truly a beautiful game and i hope to see more games from these people, one hell of a gem and a game that wont be leaving my memory any time soon.
ONE OF THES BEST GAMES I HAVE SIMPLY EVER PLAYED IN MY LIFE!! TRULY A HEARTFELT STORY THAT KEEPS YOU GOING THROUGH THE HORRFIC ATMOSPHERE !!
must play cannot describe with words
Absolutely beautiful story telling with a Heartbreaking twist
Beautiful Story
wonderful story damn i actually got teary eyed
如果不是做成了游戏,你是无法如此沉浸/感受这个故事的。所有的机制、镜头和恐怖都设计得如此完美贴合Bernard。这个游戏没有获得它值得获得的关注。 如果有人能看到这个推荐,请一定购买这个游戏。虽然它可能会触发一些你的情绪,但你不会后悔的。(如果你很害怕跳脸,可能需要三思) 10/10 [spoiler]如果你因为某些原因受到了创伤,而在你的眼里别的人也在经历相似的事却看上去很好,这不是你的错。A trauma is a trauma. 你已经是勇者了。[/spoiler]
