A Japanese narrative adventure in the Andes. Polished cinematic staging, well-drawn characters, contemplative pace. Stiff controls and occasionally opaque puzzles slow immersion, but the mood remains unique.

An underrated gem

A cinematic adventure that stayed locked away in Japan, it follows hostages struggling to survive after a crash in the Andes. Its stiff, sluggish gameplay let people down, but its ambitious staging and dramatic tension stand apart from the run-of-the-mill. For anyone curious about forgotten narrative adventures, ready to forgive playability from another era.
