Absolutely loved this , great work dev 👏 It's short and it hasn't got perfect graphics but it doesn't need to . It builds up the tension gradually and plays into the feeling that no amount of made up monsters will ever be more terrifying than the human monsters who walk amongst us every day. Loved the little references to other games. Eagerly awaiting the next release5 found this helpful

Just... No. This game is BAD. Horrible graphics, animation, narration. I don't know if it eventually picks up the pace but the first 30 minutes were boring as hell. Voice acting is amateurish and sometimes there is so much echo you can't really hear what the actors are saying. Just stay away from this.1 found this helpful
