Embark on a poignant journey to seal the ominous In-Between, balancing delicately between life and death, guided by an ancient Word Spirit. The game's charm lies in its minimalist visuals paired with a unique "timeline battle system".

Jo Drolet shares, *“I wanted to create this charming minimalistic world about life and death with the hope that players lose track of time and feel enspirited by this dance between unexpected discoveries, strategy flow, and heartwarming music.”*
