EXIT (2025)

Exit is a creepy Chinese puzzle game where you hunt anomalies through a strange phone to escape a nightmare loop. The eerie atmosphere and cryptic story questioning your purpose and the phone’s trustworthiness are intriguing. However, the gameplay is frustratingly unclear, with no clear instructions on how to play or identify anomalies, making it confusing and hard to progress. Repetitive loops add to the frustration. It’s a short, unsettling experience for horror puzzle fans, but the lack of guidance makes it tough to enjoy fully.

This game is merely okay. For $2, it's fine and I could say I got my money's worth out of it. The game does not provide clear instruction and some of the English translated text is confusing, but it's simple enough to figure out what exactly the game expects you to do once you go a few rounds along the repeating hallway. Simply put, Exit is an Exit 8 and PT knock-off anomaly finder, and not a particularly great one. That said, the anomalies are pretty easy to capture and the game keeps track of them for you on a nifty cork board. Outside of the solo developer Unity jank, my biggest problem with this game is that it does not include an inverse Y-axis option for those who have that preference, which forced me to futz with the Steam level controller settings to get this game even remotely playable for me. I should not be expected to do that unless I'm on the Steam Deck.

I played EXIT, and I really loved the atmosphere—the creepy hospital and sound design are super intense, it genuinely scares you! It’s intriguing to dig into what happened there. But man, the bugs ruin everything—the game’s so poorly made, it’s hard to play because of all the glitches. I wouldn’t recommend it right now, but if the devs polished it up, it’d be awesome, ‘cause the story is really captivating and I want to know more.

1. There are no instructions (that I could find or understand) 2. The game made no sense 3. Just kept taking pictures of everything, nothing happened Got frustrated and quit 0/10

Beat the game with 2/5 achievements. An absolutely super fun realistic anomaly game where you witness various mind blowing anomolies in a hospital. Hanging dead bodies, creepy civilians and teletubbies. The head bobbing was fantastic, graphics super nice. GG

Enjoyed the game. Wish the prompts were a bit more clear. My second gameplay (The first gameplay crashed at the end). https://youtube.com/live/WYEpesoqHxQ
