A tightly scripted nightmare where every frame feels deliberate, and 96 out of 100 post-release reviews agree. Over a quarter of players have already burned through 25 hours, chasing a story that refuses to let go.

What it's about: Sorry We're Closed est une histoire d'anges, de démons, et de collisions entre leur monde et le nôtre. Un mélange de survival horror excentrique, de tir et d'exploration à l'ancienne, dans lequel Michelle devra se servir de son troisième œil pour percer les mystères de l'outre-monde.
