  • stability
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's stability is generally solid, with only minor visual glitches reported, such as character animations and humorous transition effects. While some players may experience softlocking due to not following specific completion orders, these issues are not considered game-breaking and are often attributed to player error. Overall, the game is stable, though those aiming for 100% achievements may face significant challenges.

    • “There's some bugs; thankfully, the major ones are just small visual glitches like character dying animations or the funny 'dying' during transitions (don't worry, you only hear a scream but no death). Personally, I didn't find anything game-breaking except for some softlocking, but that's just the player's fault, to be honest, because some sections have to be completed in a specific order. Although the punishment is quite severe for those going for 100% achievements.”
    • “Now, take control of a buggy agent as you take a lift down to the abyss... of turrets!”
