✦ AI summary

Don't Play This is praised by players for its effective jump scares and atmospheric horror that genuinely frightens even on replays, with the environmental build-up and sound design creating genuine tension. The main complaints center around the audio being excessively loud during scares and some players wishing for more gore, though others feel the game is too intense regardless. Players generally recommend it as a worthwhile horror experience, particularly for those seeking genuine scares.

omg the jumpscares are phenomenal. I legit jumped out of my chair. Like I re-played this game TWICE, and they still got me. Highly recommended!

Awesome game ! Wish it was scarrier than this more gore and blood !

This game is made to be a small but enjoyable horror experience through environmental build-up to a killer finale for each episode. The only reason I returned the game is to save money. Gas isn't cheap LOL! My only complaint about the game is that the jump-scares are unbelievably loud. The solution is simple though, just turn the volume down to almost the minimum, or whatever you are comfortable with. This helps so you can still feel the tension but not damage your hearing! Magnificent game!

GREAT GREAT GREAT Game that's even just typing this review, my hairs on my arm are still standing. The game seems SO realistic like your character is living it until you realize they are not... or are they? Great amount of jump scares, and the spooky ambience is perfect as well.

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
