Not recommended Aug 20, 2026

Game have good potential, yet it's broken. you can't advance trough levels because item spawn is so random it can even not spawn. Hostile AI is so fast with strange detection system and patch finder, yet it is very easy to bug him. I hope these bugs will be fixed and game will be normally playable.

absolute impossible trash game.

worst game ever, if youre looking for a free brain tumor and eternal depression then this game is for you, the stamina in that bald cranky old geezer is so implausible it made me shart stools, this game is amazing and the definition of a dumpster fire, loved how i died in the first few seconds and the jump scare was horrendous, it caused my whole body to shut down because it couldnt comprehend such a dreadful game. thank you for making this and i dont know where i would be now without this game, you should add more updates to make the game worse.
