For
Players drawn to interactive ghost stories and narrative puzzles
Worth noticing
Credits identify Marycel as a small open model, Qwen3-8B, fine-tuned for the game; the page says game rules check each step.

Field notes

Signals are shared across the rooms, but a character only notices one if it is visible or audible from their location. The instructions say the player must answer with one of six options, and that the rooms can end independently; endings include a saved recording with nobody moved and a wrong-voice outcome. Credits name the model, voice, music, fonts, and sound effects, while the page links to MIT-licensed source code.
