✦ AI summary
Players praise this horror VR experience for its effective atmosphere, creative use of light and sound, and genuine scares that don't rely on cheap jumpscares, particularly in the tunnel sections. However, most agree the 30-minute runtime feels too short for the price, with several suggesting it's better value on sale, and some find the walking simulator gameplay simplistic with control issues like awkward thumbstick-based interactions and lack of smooth turning options.
[h1] Experienced on the Oculus Rift with Touch Controllers [/h1] One of the better Halloween / Horror experiences in VR. Game is a little less than 30 minutes long. It is pretty much a walking simulator and gameplay is simple, but very effective. There's a great sense of terror as you go walking/running around in the dark. Eventually you get into the tunnels and that's where the game gets fun. I don't want to spoil the game, but let's just say the game does a great job with light and dark and creepy sounds all around in an enclosed area. You do have free locomotion but no smooth/snap turning (have to turn in real life). There's a very thin story ... but all you really need to know is to run for your life! Rate 7.5. I would rate it higher, but it is a little expensive for 30 minutes of content although this is a nice game to [strike] scare friends / family with [/strike] introduce friends / family to VR ;)5 found this helpful
Five bucks for a half an hour of gameplay. Sure, it's only five dollars, but it's also only a half hour of gameplay...it was really good, just way too short. If you don't think thirty minutes with the only bit of replay value being experiencing the same jumpscares and overall creepy feeling is worth five dollars, then wait for a sale, but don't refuse to buy it at all, because it definitely was a fun experience.1 found this helpful
No Bueno. Like others have said, it's just walking around in the dark with some scary sounds. Not worth my time...1 found this helpful
Good, scary.1 found this helpful
Ooohkay, this one got me a decent bit. It did have me panicking at some points and I was dreading to continue. I did make it to the end in roughly 30 minutes (technically 35 but that was because I was running around like a headless chicken at one part) Atmosphere was really good and this game didn't rely on cheap jumpscares. However the controls on Oculus/Meta headsets gotta go. Clicking down the thumbstick to use the lighter is very jank. Also the lack of thumbstick turning is a bit annoying even if physically turning around is fine. Not the best VR experience but still a decent horror one, I could totally see myself showing this to friends I have. While I am happy with the $5 I spent I think 2.50 would be more reasonable as you can tell actual effort went into this, but it's just a bit too short.
Such an awesome game! I'd love to see more from this Dev.
