Deepscape

The deepscape is a place inside Mary's mind, her deepest memories reside here, as do Shadow Rat. The place is in darkness, only illuminated by a path of luminous particles; the ground appears to be made of water or be flooded.

From the 3rd Night and onward, Shadow Cat will attack you if you stay out of the path for too long, which is indicated by the timer at the top.

## Inside

Although the deepscape since the 2nd Night is totally optional, there are many interesting things inside.

* Medical experts say that the first actor died from asphyxiation. The other actor died from hitting the nape against the edge of a table after he fell.

What a scary thing to experience.
