The graphics are solid and effective, creating a strong atmospheric experience with good lighting and visuals that enhance the game's mood. While not next-gen, they serve the story well, though the lack of graphical options and customizable settings like V-sync and mouse sensitivity is a noted drawback.
“This has some good scares, solid graphics, atmospheric music, and is simple enough an old fart like me can play it!”
“The story is basically 'you’re stuck in an office time loop, deal with it,' the graphics do their job without pretending to be next-gen, and the controls are smooth.”
“Combined with the visuals and lighting, it creates this constant sense of discomfort that keeps you hooked.”
“If you require V-sync to stop screen tearing, unfortunately this game doesn't have any options. You can't turn down the really loud ambient volume, change anything graphically, or adjust the mouse sensitivity. The sensitivity is quite high, so you'll need to change your DPI settings. These limitations are the main downsides of the game.”
“The graphics do their job without pretending to be next-gen.”
“Graphics rating: 12/15”
