Field notes
The homepage offers a browser route alongside Windows 10/11 version 0.0.7 and Linux packages in .deb and .tar.gz forms; it also links to step-by-step help. The footer identifies Mohd Mahmodi and Donjamie as the revivers and distinguishes this fan project from Etchinghill Studios, whose 1996–2001 copyright appears there. The page says guests can join, though the extracted evidence does not establish whether rooms were populated during the check.
