The Steam remake rebuilds the original free title with RPG Maker MZ, adding new characters, episodes, endings, reworked puzzles, and upgraded graphics and controls for a smoother experience on Windows.

Story and Mystery
Enri explores a strange facility, and the narrative reveals its mysteries gradually as the player progresses. Each discovered clue adds to the unsettling atmosphere and motivates continued escape attempts.
The remake introduces additional characters and episodes that expand the lore, providing extra context about the facility’s dark history without altering the original storyline.

Puzzle Redesign
Several puzzles have been completely reworked for the remake, offering fresh challenges even to players familiar with the original. Solutions now require careful observation of new environmental cues.
Because the puzzles differ from the original, players should expect distinct solution paths and may need to experiment with items found during exploration.
- Trial‑and‑error is useful when experimenting with the reworked puzzle solutions.
- Look for patterns in the surroundings that may hint at the correct interaction.

Both keyboard and gamepad inputs are supported; dashing can be performed with a key combo or a controller button, giving players flexible mobility options.

New Characters and Endings
The remake adds new characters, each accompanied by an episode that expands the world and reveals additional narrative threads. These episodes enrich the overall story.
New endings are tied to the expanded story content; the expanded story content includes new endings to uncover.
- Record which character episodes you have finished to avoid unintentionally skipping content.
- Compare outcomes after playing different episodes to see how endings vary.

Controller Support
Full controller support includes DualShock and DualSense compatibility. A four‑way stick handles movement, while buttons map to decide, cancel, and open/close the item screen.
The Y button combined with the cross key triggers a dash, mirroring the keyboard dash command and preserving mobility options for gamepad users.
- Use the dash button on the controller to maintain distance from pursuing monsters.
- Familiarize yourself with the button layout before intense chase sequences.
