Sacha retourne dans la ville russe de Khrushchevsk pour veiller sur sa grand-mère malade, un lieu lié à ses étés d'enfance. Ce walking simulator d'horreur psychologique se déroule dans un cadre moderne réaliste, où la tension monte au fil d'une exploration lente. Les joueurs arpentent des rues et des maisons familières, reconstituant le puzzle à partir d'indices disséminés dans l'environnement et de notes, pour percer le mystère de son état.
L'observation minutieuse des lieux fait avancer l'histoire, et la lecture de tous les documents est indispensable pour saisir l'intrigue. La partie dure en moyenne 50 minutes, mêlant simulation indie et aventure dans une expérience ancrée dans le réel. Elle résonne particulièrement avec ceux qui ont grandi en Russie ou dans la CEI, ravivant des ambiances d'antan au cœur de problématiques actuelles, tout en intégrant violence, alcool et thèmes matures, réservés à un public adulte.
