It follows the structure of old-school first-person dungeon crawlers -mapping corridors, managing resources, fighting turn-based battles against creatures that appear without warning- but wraps that formula in a horror setting closer to survival horror than to the genre's usual heroic fantasy. Atlus, a specialist in niche RPGs, brought it to North America at a time when this kind of first-person dungeon still had a loyal audience on DS.
It remained a minor cult experience, appreciated by those who closely followed the catalog of Japanese RPGs Atlus rescued for the West.
