~ GAMEPLAY ~
The gameplay primarily revolves around solving environmental puzzles while navigating through dangerous and disturbing scenarios. Players control a small character named Six, who must evade various enemies and obstacles to progress. The puzzles are cleverly designed, often requiring creative thinking to figure out how to proceed. The tension is heightened by the fact that Six is defenseless, making each encounter with enemies feel genuinely nerve-wracking. It also presents a cryptic and largely wordless narrative, leaving much of the story open to interpretation. The game doesn't provide explicit explanations, allowing you to piece together the events and themes.
