✦ AI summary

Night Project receives divided feedback from players. Supporters praise its horror atmosphere, mystery storytelling through environmental clues and dreams, and the eerie presence of the antagonist Kili, making it appealing to fans of the genre. However, critics raise significant concerns about aggressive monetization including an in-game cash shop and paywalled DLC content, alongside complaints about gameplay mechanics like an ineffective flashlight, poor dialogue quality, janky graphics, and unclear tutorials, with some players finding the overall experience disappointing and incomplete.

I've been enjoying Night Project so far! The mix of horror and exploration keeps me on edge, especially with the creepy presence of the villain, Kili. I love the game's atmosphere and the way it lets you piece together the story through notes, interactions, and dreams. The setting is eerie, and I find myself eager to see what happens next. If you're a fan of horror and mystery, definitely give this indie title a try!

This game is absolute garbage. Took forever to figure out how to turn on the flashlight, lousy plot, dialogue is in gibberish, janky graphics, just a total mess. Rating: 1/10
