Rather short entry, with a title that insinuate a continuation of the story in the future. The very abrupt end also hints at this not being the final version of this entry (the player maybe needing to go through trials to find their way).
The available choices feel a bit frustrating, forcing the player to only go through one path (following blindly the "Voice"). Either you go against the path and you die, or you follow the voice (with little to no reluctance) to survive. While this format could be fun, the shortness of the story and the forcefulness of following only one path makes it less enjoyable than it could be.
Still, you can see the potential, even with how short the entry is. If a future addition is actually planned, I would advise to include more variation in the death sequence or alternative paths to solve a trial.
Thanks for submitting! We’ll be rating soon!
