Vigil turns your own biology into a gameplay mechanic: blinking is no longer harmless. That tiny, unavoidable human reflex becomes the monster's opening, so every moment is loaded with dread. The result is a nasty feedback loop - fear makes you blink more, blinking makes you die faster - and it's deliciously cruel.
