Powiem tak gra ma świetną oprawę graficzną porównywalną z baldurs gate 3 możemy doświadczyć dużo strasznych rzeczy takich jak ciemność jak w dupie oraz straszny pociąg widmo, ma świetne soudntracki dzieki ktorym możemy poczuć się jak w prawdziwym życiu , gra ma niezwykle duży realizm jak na takie male studio , jeśli jestes fanem horrorów z przyjemnością polecam tą niezwykle majestatyczną grę ps polecam zbierać baterię dzieki której nasza postać nie będzie się męczyć oraz umierac :DDD

A boring horror game similar to the original Slenderman game, but somehow much worse. You run around an asset flipped forest collecting items. Watch out for invisible walls, floors without collision, and the spooky floating area locked banner. There are only a couple small areas you need to complete to finish the game. In the minefield, the collision on the mines is terrible and when it looks like you are clearly going to avoid them you'll still blow up. That's the most "difficult" area, though. Completing all the areas takes about 10-15 minutes at most. Also, there wasn't a mouse sensitivity option which is always fun to see.

Spent most of the time walking around aimlessly and then into land mines. No running, nearly unreadable text due to the font... If it it doesn't hook you within 10 minutes it probably won't.
