✦ AI summary

Players praise the game's great atmosphere and accessible controls, with many finding it a stylish, quick experience that works well for younger players or fans of cute-animal horror games. However, recurring complaints center on excessive darkness that makes gameplay frustrating without brightness adjustments, a lack of story and music that weakens the horror atmosphere, and camera issues that combine with unclear visuals during encounters and puzzles, leading to trial-and-error gameplay rather than satisfying challenge.

The Positives: >Great atmosphere. >Not bad controls. >Quick and easy game. The Negatives: >Sadly the lighting was too dark for my PC, I had to install Gamma Panel to properly play the rest. >I feel like it could use more music as I feel like the vibe of the game was a little low. Need more horror. >Needs more of a story line, not even for me to peak my interest. All in all, it's not for me. But keep going with it as there's so much to improve, there's good talent in this and I can see it going further.

กราฟิกและระบบเกม ทัศนียภาพของเกมและการควบคุมมีความเป็นเอกลักษณ์เฉพาะตัวสูงมาก ตัวละครหนูได้รับการออกแบบมาอย่างสวยงามและน่ารักน่าเอ็นดู ส่วนรอยแผลเป็นบนหน้าของหนู ดูเหมือนผ่านโลกและมีประสบการณ์มาอย่างโชกโชน แม้ว่าเกมจะค่อนข้างสั้น แต่เนื้อเรื่องดำเนินไปในจังหวะที่ดี ข้อตำหนิเล็กๆ น้อยๆ เพียงอย่างเดียวคือ อยากให้มีเนื้อเรื่องเบื้องหลังมากกว่านี้ เพื่ออธิบายว่าทำไมสิ่งมีชีวิตเหล่านี้ถึงถูกกระทำเช่นนี้ ส่วนที่ควรปรับปรุง / คำแนะนำในการซื้อ สำหรับใครที่สงสัยว่าจะซื้อดีไหม สภาพแวดล้อมและวัตถุที่สามารถโต้ตอบได้นั้นค่อนข้างแยกแยะยากไปหน่อย บางด่านทำให้ฉันติดแหง็กอยู่กับที่และไม่แน่ใจว่าจะไปต่อได้อย่างไร ตายวนซ้ำๆกันจนกระทั่งเผลอเดินไปเจอทางไปต่อ และที่สำคัญที่สุด ผู้เล่นที่ใช้คีย์บอร์ดไม่สามารถปรับมุมกล้องได้เลย ดูเหมือนว่าฟีเจอร์นี้จะใช้ได้เฉพาะกับจอยคอนโทรลเลอร์เท่านั้น Gameplay & Graphics The game's visuals and controls are highly unique. The mouse character is beautifully designed and adorable, yet the scars give them a deeply weathered, experienced look. While the game is relatively short, the story is well-paced. My only minor gripe is that I wished for more lore explaining why these creatures were treated this way. Areas for Improvement / Buying Advice For those wondering whe…

Great little game, stylish and not too frustrating. For those commenting that the screens are too dark, many places along the way have lighting options if you look for them.

Fun little game. There are only 2 issues I found First its a bit too dark, I dont know about other players but I prefer a "soft" darkness where I can still see things, rather than pitch black. Secondly if you have low frame rate your jump hight will be significantly higher, which can help you solve some puzzles.
