The game has a charming B-grade quality that provides comedic moments and laughter, reminiscent of the Evil Dead movies.
It offers decent jump scares and a fun atmosphere, making it feel like a haunted maze experience.
The mechanics are easy to understand, and the game is enjoyable for its price, especially for those looking for a quick horror experience.

The voice acting and translations are poorly executed, which detracts from the horror atmosphere and can be unintentionally funny.
Many hallways are too narrow, making it difficult to navigate around monsters, and the lighting can be inconsistent.
As an early access game, it suffers from technical issues and feels incomplete, leading to frustration rather than genuine scares.

The game's atmosphere is heavily influenced by a 1980s aesthetic, reminiscent of "Stranger Things," with dark lighting and slow-motion effects that create a unique ambiance. However, the presence of poorly translated text detracts from the horror experience, leading to a mix of unintended humor that some players find distracting. Overall, while the visual elements contribute to a nostalgic and eerie setting, the execution of translations undermines the intended atmosphere.
- “The monsters look like men in latex suits, and the lighting and sets give a 1980's atmosphere, much like 'Stranger Things'.”

- “Don't get me wrong, the translations are so bad they're good; some of them made me cry with laughter, but I don't think it should be included in a horror game. It just ruins the atmosphere. If you do include translations for other languages, check the spelling and grammar at least, or ask someone who actually knows the language.”
- “The dark atmosphere and gliding/slow motions had me distracted just enough.”

The music in the game has received mixed feedback, with players enjoying the unique feature of the main monster playing marching band music during the chase after completing the game. However, some reviewers criticized the reliance on Unity store assets for enemy music, suggesting a lack of originality in the soundtrack. Overall, while the music adds a fun element, it could benefit from more creativity and variety.
- “Still would recommend checking it out, if only for the ability to make the main monster play marching band music as it chases you after completing the game once.”
- “And all of the enemies that were used in the quietmansion2 were used in this game as well, but the dev just added new background music for every enemy. (Dev, if you're reading this, next time try not to use Unity Store assets or at least use fewer of them.)”
