at full price.
Already a BANGER at $0.99.
Buy it. The price is already a steal.
$0.38/hr over the 2.6h main story, $0.37/hr if you 100% it (2.7h).

Better value than 100% of Narrative games

A mysterious invitation leads to the attic of an abandoned house. In the room is a cast-iron safe laced with strange carvings and on top, a note from your distant companion. It promises something ancient and astonishing concealed in the iron chamber - you need only find a way in.
