Press Quotes
“The distinctive, creepy-yet-beautiful art style really sets it apart from just about everything in gaming today.” Kotaku “Birth is like if plague doctors and 2004 web series Salad Fingers were beautiful instead of deeply upsetting.” IGN “No matter what my eyes turned to and my fingers clicked on, each puzzle and environment only ever ended in a sense of triumph and discovery.” Rock Paper Shotgun
