Summary Category Perception Level design Looks good. Occasionally confusing Art Consistent art style. Looks good overall, but has a decent amount of Z-fighting Sound design Good sound design. Does a good job building tension Story Decently good with some twists towards the end Gameplay Exploration, simple objectives (collect items) and chase scenes Bugs/glitches Very clanky mechanics and goofy animations, among some other issues Other issues One of the last levels features a door requiring three keys. This level is really frustrating as you have to go grab one key at a time. If you die even once, you restart the whole level. The game is often not clear about where you need to go, so you probably will die here Length Under 4 hours on average Worth it? At a discounted price Conclusion I like this game, but for the wrong reasons. The game actually does a decent job at building tension. It has some genuinely scary moments, dark environments with a good flashlight (making it dark, but not unreasonably so) and good looking visual design for the most part, but it suffers from severe Z-fighting (texture glitches), clunky mechanics that works when it feels like it, very goofy animations (your character model while you sprint and crawl for example) and other odd issues, like voice lines repeating themselves and going out of sync for some reason. While the tension was often good, it was also ruined just as often by lame jumpscares and chase scenes with dead ends, forcing you to restart by trial and error. So, half the time I enjoyed the game for being a genuinely alright horror game. The other half of the time I enjoyed the game because the goofiness and glitches made me laugh. This makes it a little tough to recommend it. But overall, I had a good time with it, so I recommend trying it out for a discounted price.
