Lovecraftian point and click short story. Does a great job at creating a creepy atmosphere.
A short and unsettling tale. It's free, and it's worth your uh... 0.2 hours.

Short and primitive. I like it!
Very short, nice and not too scary. I got all achievements, I think only one is missable. The artstyle is great, puzzles really easy. Overall, a pleasant and quick game!
fun game
Terrible choices lead to impactful consequences in this captivating game. Old legends collide with nightmares in this short but engaging point-and-click adventure. Man, the storytelling grips you from start to finish.
A whisper of dread in just fifteen minutes. The Terrible Old Man doesn’t rely on gore or jump scares — it creeps under your skin with atmosphere alone. The hand-drawn style, the stillness, the quiet... it all feels like something out of a forgotten nightmare. This is what short horror should be — concise, unsettling, and memorable. Every click feels like prying open a secret you were never meant to find. If you love old-school point-and-click adventures or stories that linger like an echo, play this one in the dark and listen closely. We need more games like this — short, strange, and eerily human. if this review helps you understand well, consider dropping any award, thanks.
C'est très laid, mais ça provient d'un game-jam, l'histoire est lovecraftienne et c'est gratuit. Donc, je recommande.
Great game!!!
