Players praise the game's unique atmosphere, cool art style, and solid craftsmanship for a free title, with several recommending it despite its quirks. However, common complaints include frustrating maze-like navigation sections, repetitive deaths that feel tedious, occasional crashes with progress loss, and overly complicated puzzle design that doesn't always feel purposeful. The game shows promise but leaves some players wishing for longer content and more polished mechanics.

It's not bad for a FREE game, from what I saw... Actually quite good until it randomly crashed. I lost a lot of progress. Worth a try though. YMMV.

A really cool game, even though some moments are really iritating and weird. I would have loved it iv it went a bit longer (and also if it had achievements:)) The graphic style is really cool and the overall game is really weird but also really cool and well made. Its also FREE. I can really highly recommend it.

I really hate games that make you run around all over the place looking for sh!t just for the sake of making you run around. Kept getting caught in the maze area. This game had potential, but the repetitive deaths just made it frustrating and boring.
