[b] System Requirements MINIMUM: GRAPHICS CARD: 2GB NVIDIA GeForce GTX 950 / AMD Radeon R9 200 series [/b] My [b] NVIDIA 1060 6GB [/b] was constantly running at 100% usage! The game ran at around 25–35 FPS. I understand this is an indie game, but this performance is really terrible. The graphics settings only include low, medium, high, plus VSync and an option to play in windowed or fullscreen mode — and that’s it. It might be an interesting game, but it is very poorly optimized.

kraťoučká hororovka s dobrou atmoškou. některý puzzles jsem musel pogooglit protože jsem měl v sobě asi 6 piv
Fajna giereczka na noc. Polecam.
Tahle hra je peak , má zajímavé hádanky které nejsou náročné a nepříjemnou atmosféru, celou dobu jsem nevěděl co mám od té hry čekat a hlavně jak skončí což konec je trošku nic moc ale to se dá odpustit vzhledem k tomu že jsem se celou dobu bavil, velké plus je to že je to česká hra s českým dabingem a texty což mě velice překvapilo a doufám že můžeme očekávat i další hry tohoto typu protože to byl peak, ve hře máte 3 konce pokud se nepletu a i nějaký momenty ve hře můžete udělat více způsoby což mě taky bavilo prozkoumávat, a jsem opravdu rád že jsem si tuhle hru zahrál takže stoprocentně doporučuju.
10/10 polska gurom
Leggit GOOD game . No cheap jumpscares, good atmosphere. over all GOOD game
Výborná hra, která je zařazena do klasického českého socialistického paneláku. Žádné rvačky ani souboje! Logická řešení, lekačky, tajemno a nejistota je to, co vám tato hra nabízí. Navíc máte více možností, jak se v danou situaci rozhodnout. Tato hra by se měla dostat určitě do širšího podvědomí. Optimalizace je výborná, grafika lepší průměr, a propracovanost detailů maximální. Rozhodně doporučuji a těším se na další skvosty od tohoto skvělého vývojáře, co si říká Pajos.
While running past an apartment building in the middle of nowhere, a man yells down from the roof asking for help. Against my better judgment, I rush inside to do the right thing. The front door locks behind me almost immediately. What follows is a series of jump scares, strange puzzles, and an apartment building that operates under a very unsettling set of rules. The deeper I go, the clearer it becomes that this place isn’t just dangerous — it’s deliberate. Panelak leans heavily into atmosphere and tension, slowly turning a simple act of helping into something far more uncomfortable. The question isn’t just can you help… but should you. 7 out of 10 would Recommend!
