a really fun and nostalgic game. I remember seeing youtubers like PewDiePie playing it back in 2016 (or even later, I don't remember). 10/10

It's easy to pass this off as something like Slender: The Arrival, where it doesn't offer much that the free version doesn't, but there's more content here than you might think, if you can actually get good enough to unlock it. The entertainment comes from the sheer absurdity of it and the purposefully awful controls. Crack open the ribs with a hammer, rip out the lungs with your hands and just kind of drop them by the table. Or better yet, throw them out a moving ambulance. You can even "accidentally" prick yourself with a syringe and make everything trippy. At it's best, it's like playing a Three Stooges routine. It's also significantly funnier when you have people watching. I actually recommend it if it's on sale and you're up for something more experimental. The free version is basically a demo of the first level. Admittedly, the joke may not be worth $10.

The fact that people are putting bad reviews on this game all because they think the game is hard is complete buffoonery. Lowkey a SKILL ISSUE if you can't get used to the controls. The game is a lot of fun. And one more thing, the controls are MEANT to be HARD.
