In terms of quality, the game is great. Very atmospheric and flavorful. The main thing is the game is quite short being one you could 100% in an afternoon. I think it is a bit expensive for the playtime. Pick it up on sale, but for $15, I'd say wait unless you really like escape room like games.
I absolutely love the concept. I played the demo and instantly knew I'd buy the full game. It's a unique experience.
Great little puzzle game. Some parts are pretty tough but most of it is just the right level of difficult but intuitive.
This game is, in fact, really trying to kill you. Totally worth the short experience (~4 hours) if you grab it on sale. Well-crafted and thought-out puzzles.
TLDR: Good! But probably wouldn't buy for full price I think it does pretty well for an escape room type game. The puzzles don't feel obtuse or nonsensical. Although I did find them to be somewhat easy, they were fun. The only times I had difficulties solving a puzzle were usually because you had to unexpectedly backtrack or use a puzzle mechanic an additional time, this more so caused annoyance and confusion rather than actually creating a challenging puzzle. The visuals are likewise really great! The design is really cohesive and both the house and monitor worlds are well designed. The boss fights are where it really struggled for me, most of the boss fights use the same couple mechanics which are fun the first time but they are never really challenging and quickly get boring and repetitive. The second to last fight is more fun and unique but the last boss is honestly pretty terrible and is just a slow, repetitive, and obnoxious fight. My only other gripes with the game are pretty minor, I found some death animations to be overly long, especially if you could reasonably die in the same segment multiple times. Likewise I found it annoying how far away some respawn areas are fr…
Good mix of first person and computer puzzle elements. Didn't overstay its welcome and the story worked out well
