Finally beat it after 8 years because I was always way too scared to make any progress.

Pretty fun, the random item spawns and three possible monster make each experience pretty unique. The worst part about the game is if you have played multiple games, searching for items can burn you out. This game in my opinion is best played with a few friends and taking turns, or making the friend who scares easily play and watch and laugh at them.

I remember watching Markiplier playing this years ago and I thought at the time it wasn't that scary, So I decided to try it for myself and I spent most of my time hiding in lockers. The game does a good job at making you tense and scared, I also appreciate the small details like seeing your player model with animations. Good Game, I got it on sale so it was cheaper than usual but I feel that it could be cheaper since how long ago it was released.

Genuinely Fun and Thrilling This game is a simple concept executed exceptionally well. Your objective? Escape. How? By collecting the items needed to set up one of three escape routes. Sounds straightforward, right? Well, not quite—because you’ll be doing it while being hunted by one of three terrifying monsters! Every playthrough is unique, thanks to procedural generation. The monster, the layout of the ship, and the placement of critical items are all randomized. This keeps the gameplay fresh and unpredictable. A single session can last as little as 10 minutes if you’re an expert, but for most players (myself included), it’s typically 30 minutes to an hour. What I love most about this game is the procedural generation. It ensures every playthrough is different, maintaining a constant sense of tension and the thrill of the unknown. This dynamic approach also makes achievement hunting far more engaging. Overall, this is a fantastic horror experience—a modern classic in its own right. I give it a solid 8.6/10.
